LAUNCH: Parenting Tips for Raising Adult Children & Building Better Relationships
If you’re a parent of a young adult, are these questions keeping you up at night;
How can I become the best parent to my kids? How can I improve my communication with them? How can we connect better? How can I help them to become more confident, resilient and independent? What can I do to motivate them? Why don't they respect me? Why don't they want to hang out with me?
If you're searching for these answers, this podcast is for you. I'm Shari Jonas and this is LAUNCH. Where I offer honest, no BS parenting tips that will help you to raise your adult child with confidence (regardless of whether they're living with you or on their own) and become the best parent you can be.
I address the most relevant, challenging and deeply personal issues that parents are facing with their young adults. Each episode offers real-life stories, research-based strategies, and no BS advice that will help you to become the parent that your adult child ALWAYS turns to, someone they love to spend time and, someone who will guide them to becoming confident, resilient, independent and capable of thriving in the world.
Join me each week as I tell it like it is. No sugar coating. Real talk. Let's face it, parenting can be hard work, especially because we're figuring it out every day. We're learning as we go, and we can always be better. I hope to inspire you, give you the confidence you need to connect with them, and to educate you when you need a little guidance. Sometimes I have amazing guests, other times, it's just me; a Mom of 2 grown kids, who practically raised my children alone. As an educator, author and parenting consultant, I know what it takes to build incredible relationships, while guiding them through life's challenges, and I want to share it all with you.

LAUNCH: Parenting Tips for Raising Adult Children & Building Better Relationships
#36: The Inspiring Story of a Young Woman Who - With the Encouragement of Her Parents - Refused to Let Her Learning Disability Define Her.
If your adult child has a learning disability and feels stigmatized, unmotivated, and has a "life isn't fair" attitude, or perhaps your adult child simply makes excuses for their lacklustre life and spends a lot of time feeling sorry for themselves, you better believe this episode is for you.
Michelle Steiner’s story is exactly what every parent needs to hear if they feel bad for their young adult because they believe the narrative that was told to them when their child was first diagnosed.
Michelle could have believed what her teachers told her when she was younger, that she wouldn’t be able to go to college or get a good job because of her learning disability. But she nor her parents would accept that.
If you’ve been caught in the trap of believing your child "can’t", this conversation will make you think again.
Whether your adult child is struggling with failure to launch, or you’ve quietly stopped believing they can ever live independently, this episode will open your eyes to how far someone can go when the people who care about them stop making excuses and start believing in their ability to rise.
Michelle Steiner’s story isn’t just inspirational, it’s a mindset shift for every parent who’s been told their child won’t succeed. In this honest, motivational interview, Michelle shares what it was like growing up with a learning disability and how the support around her made all the difference.
If your adult child is stuck or caught in a cycle of self-pity, this conversation will challenge you to stop making excuses and start seeing what's truly possible.
Please share this episode with any parent who needs their faith restored in their adult child's ability to find something in their life that lights them up. Never give up, is the underlying them in this episode.
