#67: Teaching Teens About Healthy Relationships

In this episode of the Make Happiness Happen podcast, we dive deep into the world of relationships - the kind that lift us up and the kind that weigh us down. I share personal stories from my own journey, highlighting how crucial it is for our daughters to build connections that are supportive, respectful, and loving. 

We discuss the signs of healthy versus toxic friendships, the art of saying no to peer pressure, and why setting boundaries is not just okay, but necessary for mental health. Plus, I walk you through practical steps to help your teen set these boundaries and foster a circle of trust. 

So, grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and let's build those joyful connections together and don't forget to download the "Healthy Friendships & Boundaries Workbook" from my website to continue this journey with your daughter. 

Together we can Make Happiness Happen!
