In this powerful episode of The Art of Raising Humans, Kyle and Sara Wester unpack one of the hardest moments in parenting: when your teen triggers a deep emotional reaction in you. They explore why these intense reactions often stem not from the child’s behavior, but from unhealed wounds, old beliefs, and unmet needs carried from our own childhood. Drawing from their experience as counselors and parents, they offer 5 practical steps to help you recognize your triggers, regulate in the moment, reparent yourself, and lead with calm, compassionate authority. Through personal stories and research-backed tools, you'll learn how to transform emotional reactivity into connection, and raise emotionally confident teens without slipping into permissiveness. In this episode:<ul><li>Why your child’s behavior hits such a deep nerve</li><li>How childhood beliefs influence your parenting today</li><li>What reparenting looks like in the heat of the moment</li><li>Why emotional validation builds strength, not weakness</li><li>5 clear steps to parent from healing, not hurt</li></ul> Whether you’ve snapped at your teen and regretted it or want to break cycles and model emotional intelligence, this episode will leave you feeling empowered, not ashamed. View the full podcast transcript at: <a href='https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/when-your-teen-triggers-you-how-to-parent-from-healing-not-hurt'>https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/when-your-teen-triggers-you-how-to-parent-from-healing-not-hurt</a>. Visit our website and social media channels for more valuable content for your parenting journey. Resource Website: <a href='https://www.artofraisinghumans.com'>https://www.artofraisinghumans.com</a>Video Courses: <a href='https://art-of-raising-humans.newzenler.com/'>https://art-of-raising-humans.newzenler.com/</a>Facebook: <a href='https://www.facebook.com/artofraisinghumans'>https://www.facebook.com/artofraisinghumans</a>Instagram: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/artofraisinghumans'>https://www.instagram.com/artofraisinghumans</a>Podcast Website: <a href='https://www.theartofraisinghumans.com'>https://www.theartofraisinghumans.com</a>Book List:<a href='https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/booklist'>https://www.artofraisinghumans.com/booklist</a> The Art of Raising Humans podcast should not be considered or used as counseling but for educational purposes only.
