Parenting adult kids asks us to trade control for connection and learn how to love in a way that fits who they are now. I share the mindset shifts that help me move from managing my kids’ lives to being invited into the lives they are building. • noticing when the parenting “job description” changes • shifting from manager to mentor with trust and restraint • asking questions that connect rather than create pressure • avoiding comparison and becoming a safe place without measurement • treating boundaries as growth rather than rejection • entering our adult kids’ worlds as guests with curiosity • supporting without fixing and letting struggle build capability • reflecting on being needed versus being chosen If this conversation resonated with you, I'd love for you to listen to my recent episode that we'll be dropping with Olivia Burnett, host of 20 Something. I'd love to hear from you too. What's been the biggest adjustment for you in parenting adult children? Or if you're a 20-something, what's one thing you wish your parents understood?
