Have you ever sent a text to your teen or college-aged kid and immediately wondered if they rolled their eyes when they read it? Maybe you’re trying to stay connected as they move across the country—or even just across the house.
If you’ve ever longed for a deeper bond with your child, this episode is for you.
I’m joined by Tammy Cohen—speaker, author, founder of Women Beyond the Table, and mom of three sons. Tammy is also the author of Text Messages to My Sons, a heartfelt book born from her own journey of healing, reconnection, and reimagining what parenting looks like in the digital age.
Tammy shares how she transformed her phone habits—from quick reminders and reprimands into intentional messages of love, gratitude, and presence. What began as a one-way practice during the pandemic grew into something much bigger: a pathway to emotional growth, mutual respect, and meaningful family communication.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
- Three simple parenting strategies to build daily digital connection with your kids—at any age
- How intentional texting fosters emotional intelligence parenting and deeper family communication
- Why parenting with empathy and vulnerability can support generational healing and transform the mother and son relationship
- How your own personal growth can shift your family dynamic, even if you weren’t a perfect parent
This episode is a reminder that every message is more than just words on a screen when it comes to connecting with teens or older children in today’s digital world.
Cheers to a deeper connection with your loved ones,
Laurie
