Parent Coaching for Parents of Teens & Young Adults
Help Your Child. Strengthen Your Relationship. Reconnect With Yourself.
Parenting a teen or young adult can leave you questioning everything.
When do I step in? When do I let go? How do I help without pushing them away?
Your child is growing. Your role is changing, too.
Our parent coaching program helps you strengthen your relationship, communicate with intention, and support your child without taking over, while reconnecting with who you are beyond parenting.
Because helping your child starts with how you show up.

When So Much of Your Life Has Become About Your Child...
Maybe you're:
✔ Exhausted from worrying and holding everything together
✔ Carrying their struggles, choices, and future with you
✔ Putting their needs ahead of your own
✔ Disconnected from your health, relationships, passions, or purpose
✔ Reacting more and enjoying your family less
✔ Wondering, “When did I stop feeling like myself?”
We've felt it in our own parenting, too.
When you love your child this much, it's easy for their struggles to become your worry and their future to become your focus.
But your child isn't the only one growing.
You Are, Too.
This chapter isn't only about helping your child become who they're meant to be. It's also about reconnecting with who you are and who you want to become.
Because when you're more grounded, fulfilled, and intentional in your own life, you show up differently. And your family feels it
“What surprised me most was realizing how much I needed this work, too.”
Before Extraordinary Purpose, we were constantly walking on eggshells with our son. Conversations often ended in tension or silence, and we could feel ourselves losing connection with him.
As I became calmer, more grounded, and more intentional, things began to change. There’s more communication, more trust, and more peace in our home. For the first time in a long time, we feel truly connected again.

The Extraordinary Purpose Parent Framework
Reconnect With Yourself. Strengthen Your Relationships. Lead With Intention.
Most parenting advice focuses on what your child needs to change.
Our approach starts with you.
When you become more grounded and intentional, you change how you communicate, respond, set boundaries, and show up.
And when you change how you show up, you create more space for your child to grow.
Pillar 1: Reconnect With Yourself
Become more of who you are.
✔ Rediscover your values, strengths, passions, and purpose
✔ Reconnect with what matters to you and the life you want to create
✔ Build habits and rituals that help you feel grounded, energized, and fully alive
When you grow, you change how you show up for the people you love.
Pillar 2: Strengthen Connection
Find your way back into their world.
✔ Create more trust, openness, and emotional safety
✔ Lead with curiosity, listen deeply, and seek to understand their world
✔ Set healthy boundaries without sacrificing connection
When your child feels understood, it becomes easier for them to let you in.
Pillar 3: Create Your Family Culture
Create an environment where everyone can grow.
✔ Turn your family values into rituals, habits, and everyday actions
✔ Model the growth, resilience, and self-leadership you hope to inspire
✔ Create more belonging, connection, and shared purpose at home
You can't control who your child becomes. But you can help create the environment where they discover who they are.
Stories From Parents Who Found Their Way Back
Real experiences from parents who reconnected with themselves, strengthened their relationships, and changed how they show up at home.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Before working with Erin and Chris, I felt overwhelmed all the time. I was constantly second-guessing myself, unsure when to step in, when to let go, and wondering if anything I was doing was actually helping.
Now I feel calmer, more confident, and far more grounded in how I show up as a parent. The tension in our home has shifted completely. Conversations feel easier, there’s more trust between us, and my daughter is more open, engaged, and connected than she’s been in years.
This experience didn’t just help our relationship. It helped me become the kind of parent I wanted to be.”
— Sarah T., Parent of a Young Adult
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Honestly, working with Erin and Chris changed the entire direction of our family.
We came in focused on helping our teens… but what surprised us most was how much we changed in the process.
We communicate differently now. We handle conflict differently. There’s more calm in our home, more connection, and way less walking on eggshells.
Our teens are opening up more, taking more ownership, and we finally feel like we have tools that actually help.
This wasn’t just support for our kids. It transformed us as parents too.”
— Mark R., Parent of Two Teens
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I didn’t realize how much of myself I had lost trying to hold everything together for everyone else. I was constantly stressed, emotionally exhausted, and consumed by what wasn’t working in our family.
Working with Erin and Chris helped me slow down, reconnect with myself again, and lead from a completely different place. I feel more grounded, more present, and more confident in where to put my energy instead of living in constant worry and reaction.
And that shift changed everything. Our home feels calmer, our relationships feel stronger, and for the first time in a long time, I feel hopeful about the future of our family.”
— Amanda K., Parent of Two Young Adults

When Your Children Are Growing Up, You’re Growing Too
Ronni came to parent coaching wanting to learn how to let go. She found a new way to support her young adults—and a clearer sense of who she wanted to be in this next chapter.
She was feeling worn down by challenges at home and unsure how to support her children’s independence while staying connected. Over eight weeks with Erin, Ronni explored her values, passions, and strengths. She reflected on how she wanted to show up with her kids, navigate difficult conversations, and create more enjoyable experiences as a family.
“I also learned that the changes I need to make as a parent are not about perfection but more about connection, influence, and acceptance.”
— Ronni, Parent Coaching client
By the end of the program, Ronni understood her children’s need to assert their independence in a new way. She knew she still had more to learn and practice, but felt more confident about letting them grow into capable adults—and finding her own way forward.
Your child’s next chapter is yours, too. You deserve support as you navigate it.
