81. How to Enjoy Raising Teenage Boys Even When It’s Hard A Conversation With Sue Rigby

Mother’s Day can bring up a lot for moms. Joy, pressure, doubt, and that quiet question in the back of your mind… am I doing this right?

In today’s episode, I sit down with my mom, Sue Rigby, who raised six kids and now has the gift of perspective. We talk about what actually mattered when raising boys and what didn’t.

If you’ve been stressing about grades, behavior, or whether your teenage boy will turn out okay, this episode will feel like a deep breath. We talk about why connection matters more than control, how simple moments create lasting impact, and why you might be doing better than you think.

You’ll hear real stories, simple wisdom, and encouragement you probably didn’t know you needed.

This episode will help you:

• Stop overthinking the small things
• Focus on what actually builds strong boys
• Create more connection without doing more
•
