Description
EPISODE 23: We’ve all heard the horrendous stories of drugs, sex, truancy, friendship drama, and urgh homework, not to mention modern society's constant barrage of social media, influencers, and YouTubers. I’m not sure there is a parent out there who feels confident, let alone excited, about the teenage years. That's precisely why today's podcast episode is so special. Joining us is Danielle Rossi, an Australian mom of three teenagers who was grappling with some alarming situations with her teens. Think school suspensions, drug issues, risky behaviors, police run-ins, and deep-seated emotional struggles, including self-harm and anxiety. It was a period full of slamming doors, constant yelling, and family members avoiding each other.Things were really going to hell in a handbasket until she discovered Calm the Chaos four years ago. Fast forward to today, things couldn’t be more different in Danielle’s family. They are comfortable just being in the same space, they trust each other, they have each other's backs, they are a true family team now. Danielle's home now feels warm and inviting, something she never thought her family would experience.The turning point came when she discovered the Calm the Chaos program - especially its You-CUE framework. In this episode, Danielle opens up about how she just couldn’t think when emergencies happened until she had just the 4 simple steps of the You-CUE to get her through the hardest parenting times (and believe me, she had a fair share of them).For all of you feeling like you are drowning in the chaos of parenting teens, this Danielle Rossi interview is a lighthouse.
