🎙️ Let’s Talk Teens: One Simple Trick to Help Your Teen Be More Positive

Welcome to another episode of "Let’s Talk Teens!" with certified life coaches, Abbi Winslow and Cheree Murdock — helping parents raise emotionally healthy, resilient teens.

In this episode, we’re sharing one powerful mindset shift that can dramatically change your teen’s outlook: stop interviewing for pain. Many teens (and parents!) unintentionally keep negativity alive by replaying hurts, disappointments, and frustrations over and over. While validation matters, repeatedly revisiting pain can actually reinforce it.

We’ll explain what “interviewing for pain” looks like, how it affects your teen’s mood and mindset, and how to gently help your teen acknowledge hard feelings without getting stuck in them. You’ll learn practical phrases, boundary-setting tools, and ways to redirect conversations toward growth, resilience, and problem-solving.

If you want to help your teen become more optimistic — without dismissing their feelings — this episode is a must-listen. Tune in for simple, effective strategies you can start using today. 🎧✨
