Episode 17: Adolescence — Standing Behind Our Children as They Growwith Suzi TuckerWhat does it mean to support our children without holding them back?In this conversation, Suzi Tucker and I explore adolescence as a bridge between childhood and adulthood—a time of experimentation, uncertainty, belonging, and becoming.We talk about growth as a messy and often "sloppy" process, the challenge of allowing our children to discover their own strengths and capacities, the search for belonging, and why we don't need to fully understand our adolescents in order to love them.As a mother of three teenagers, I really appreciate this conversation.Not easy to apply, but who said life is easy.I especially value the reminder that we don't need to fully understand our children in order to love them, trust them, and stand behind them as they grow.Connect with Suzi Tucker:www.suzitucker.comConnect with Iris Shaham:www.irisconstellations.com© 2026 You, Me & the Family Tree.
