Build an unbreakable bond with Your Teen

You’ve already done the brave work of seeing what’s really going on.
They’re under construction. Their brain’s in survival mode, and the silence or sass runs deeper than it seems.
And still… it’s hard.
You try to stay calm, to be the lighthouse—but some days, the storm still wins. That sweet toddler, the open-hearted 10-year-old… they feel so far away.
But you know this isn’t where the story ends. The Lab showed you what’s possible.
Now it’s time to move from insight to action—with a path that helps you practice what you’ve started.
You can go from ...

In the lessons I have seen the little details of what and how I am saying things affect my teens . Most importantly I am learning how to improve my communication using specific phrases and mindsets. I realize that there is still much room for improvement in my way of relating to my teens, which actually makes me even happier that I am here! -in this safe place of learning.
I feel cheered on, motivated and empowered by Kristen´s teachings to become the better parent inside me. All the learning is more doable through the one on one chats with Kristen that we have access to since different questions come up any time of the week.

Gain the confidence you need to build an unbreakable bond of Trust with your teen using proven, research-backed tools.
*This is NOT an online Course*
Why the TRUSTED Academy Will Work
When Nothing Else Has
This isn’t more information. It’s the support, structure, and steady practice that finally makes it stick.
- We start with YOU—not your teen. Because your transformation shifts the whole relationship.
- We move in phases—so it’s not a firehose, it’s a rhythm.
- You won’t just learn—you’ll practice, get feedback, and adjust in real time.
- You’re not alone. You’ll grow with a community of moms walking the same path.
- You’ll have coaching, tools, scripts, and support for when things get messy (because they will).
- You’ll be coached alongside other moms—which means you’ll not only learn from your own questions, but from theirs too. You’ll realize you’re not the only one—and that alone changes everything.
- You’ll have direct access to me, Kristen, through a private app—so you’re never stuck waiting for the next call. This isn’t just a course. It’s real support, in real life, when you need it most.

Where You’ll Be After a Year of Trust-Building
But insight without action won’t change your home.
When you join the TRUSTED Academy, you’ll start to live differently—with support that holds you, friends who walk beside you, and guidance that keeps you steady. Inside the Academy, you won’t just learn. You’ll be encouraged, challenged, and deeply seen. You’ll grow in a circle of moms who get it—and get you.
Imagine...
But instead of bracing for conflict, you breathe. You stay grounded. You speak calmly. You ask a curious question. And… they don’t walk away.
They answer. You listen. The conversation builds—bit by bit. Soon, you’re swapping stories, tossing ideas back and forth. And then…
Laughter. Ease. Connection. Honesty. Collaboration.
And you know—you’re not guessing anymore. You’re growing together. That’s what you’ll walk away with.
- You instinctively calm yourself before correcting your teen—so tense moments don’t spiral, and you stay steady even when they don’t.
- You are steady, not shaken, when your teen is struggling—you aren't pulled into their storm. You ARE the lighthouse.
- You lead with influence, not control— your teen actually hears you, even when the topic is hard. Your words land, not lecture.
With tools to turn to at any moments, you are experiencing real connection again—the kind that shows up in shared jokes, car ride confessions, and unguarded laughter around the dinner table.
The Proven TRUSTED Academy Framework
Built on 3 research-backed pillars that strengthen families, reduce conflict, and build lasting trust.
Each Pillar Has 3 Milestones.
1. Confidence
1. Claim Your Power
2. Let Go To Lead
3. Respond with Strength
Why This Works:
Why it Matters:
You stop second-guessing yourself and start showing up with calm, grounded strength. You’re less reactive, more intentional—and your teen notices. The tension starts to fade, not because they’ve changed, but because you have. You lead with clarity, not fear. And with every steady response, your confidence grows—and so does their trust in you.
2. Conversation
1. Get Curious, Not Furious
2. Create a safe space
Words only work when your teen feels safe.
You’ll learn how to listen without fixing, validate without agreeing, and respond without pressure—so conversations feel like invitations, not interrogations.
3. Speak With Influence

3. Connection

The TRUSTED Academy Goes Further
Most online courses give you pre-recorded videos and leave you to figure it out on your own. But the L.I.F.T. Cycle is different—because of the Feedback step. Without real feedback, you could be practicing the wrong thing and wiring new, but unhelpful habits into your brain without even realizing it. That’s not just frustrating—it’s a waste of time and brainpower.
Growth like this requires more than information. It requires coaching, course correction, and real support. That’s why I give you multiple chances to ask questions, get personal feedback, and work with me face-to-face (virtually) throughout the program. That’s what makes this is an ACADEMY, not a just a course.
An expert In Your Pocket
You don’t need to figure this out alone—and you don’t have to wait until the next group call to get help. Inside TRUSTED Academy, you’ll have direct access to me through our private messaging app. You can send a voice memo or quick text anytime you’re stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to handle something with your teen—and I’ll personally help you work through it.
Whether you’re navigating a heated moment, a silent shutdown, or a tricky conversation—you’ve got me in your corner.
And this isn’t random advice—it’s grounded in real expertise. I’m a mom of four with a degree in Child & Human Development from BYU, and I’ve spent nearly a decade coaching ambitious, high-capacity moms through the messy middle of parenting teens. I’ve studied the research, tested the tools, and built a proven system that actually sticks. I’ve been featured on Fox21, Studio 5, and as a guest on countless podcasts and parenting summits—and now, I’m here to support you.
In addition to your direct access to me, you’ll also join two hours of weekly live group coaching and connect with other moms inside the app who truly get it. But having a trusted expert in your pocket? That’s what helps you stay steady, supported, and strong—every single day.

Sometimes when Kristen asks reflective questions on a call - my mind cant quickly think of an answer - but when I see other mom's replies it gets me thinking - and also makes me realise I have THE SAME issue.
Another thing I like about group coaching is if I/anyone feels shy to bring up something - there is a chance someone else will - and I will get an answer.
Kristen also does a great job as a facilitator - because sometimes in break out rooms - we tend to wonder if we are "right" or not when discussing an answer to a question or scenario.

Smart Questions. Straight Answers.
I've heard of online courses, what is an online Academy?
Unlike a typical course where you watch videos in order and try to figure it out alone, TRUSTED Academy is a full learning + coaching experience designed for real transformation. You’ll get structured guidance, live support, feedback on your efforts, and a powerful community of moms walking the same path.
It’s more like a university than a one-size-fits-all course. In your first 3 months, you’ll get your “generals”—the foundational tools every mom needs to lead with confidence and connection. After that, you get to choose your own path. You decide which “classes” to take, when to take them, and how much support to seek out—just like office hours with a professor, support is always available when you need it.
The Vault isn’t a linear course—it’s a searchable, filterable database filled with everything I’ve created for moms of teens. You can search by pillar, topic, or format to find exactly what you need for the challenge you’re facing right now.
And everything is built around the L.I.F.T. Cycle—a proven process that helps you Learn, Implement, get Feedback, and Transform. You’re never left guessing. You’ll also have direct access to me through our private messaging app, so you can ask questions and get support between calls.
This isn’t just about learning—it’s about growth that sticks.
I really want to do this, but I'm not sure how to explain it all to my spouse.
Totally fair—it’s a lot to try and explain since this isn’t just a parenting course. It’s leadership training for moms who want to parent with strength, clarity, and emotional maturity. You can tell them this isn’t about blaming anyone—it’s about helping you show up differently, which has a ripple effect on your teen, your home, and your relationship.
Let them watch just a few minutes of your favorite part from the Lab replay. Hearing it in real time can make all the difference—and might even help them feel seen too. You can also have them watch THIS VIDEO I created just for them.
Spouse wondering about the investment? This isn’t a splurge—it’s a strategic investment in your family’s future and emotional legacy. Just like you likely have some type of education that helps you provide for your family, a stronger mom means a stronger home. This program reduces long-term conflict, creates generational impact, and gives you tools that benefit the whole family.
Spouse worried about being painted as the “bad guy”? This program isn’t about blame—it’s about learning to see things differently so we can do things differently. Many partners have actually felt more seen because their spouse learns to lead with empathy and respect. Your wife will likely see you in a new light too—as someone with good intentions who’s doing their best. Everyone wins when one parent grows stronger.
Spouse not sure if it will actually help? You don’t need blind faith—you need a proven process. This is a research-backed framework built through real-life experience and lasting results from other moms of teens. It’s not one-size-fits-all. Your wife will tailor the tools to your family—and start seeing changes fast. And if something doesn’t land, she’s not on her own. I offer personalized support along the way.
Spouse wants to be involved? Great. Yes—you’re welcome to join! Watch calls, ask questions, and apply the tools together if you’d like.
Spouse thinks the method sounds too soft? This isn’t about lowering expectations. It’s about setting them with your teen—not at them. There’s structure here, but it’s smart structure. The kind that builds long-term respect and emotional maturity—not just short-term compliance.
I've got plenty to do after just the LAB, do I really need a whole Academy?
Yes—especially if you’ve been through the LAB. Every single mom in the Academy has been through the LAB. And here’s the truth: the LAB is powerful, and it’s a lot. You leave inspired, hopeful—and sometimes overwhelmed. You may find yourself loving what you learned but feeling discouraged or even frustrated when it doesn’t come together as easily in real life. That’s normal.
The Academy is what turns that inspiration into actual transformation. Because knowing isn’t the same as applying—and without feedback, you might be wiring in the wrong patterns without even realizing it. That’s why we use the L.I.F.T. Cycle—a system that gives you real-time feedback on real situations in your home. Yes, you’ll learn more in the Academy, but the real magic is in the support, guidance, and course correction that helps you stay steady, consistent, and connected where it matters most.
How is this different from therapy, podcasts, or parenting books?
Those give you insight. This gives you transformation. TRUSTED Academy is built on a proven framework, real feedback, and live support to help you apply what you’re learning—so you’re not just inspired, you’re actually seeing change.
What if I’ve already tried things like this and it didn’t work?
How much time will this take?
Plan for about 1–2 hours per week. This isn’t about adding more to your plate—it’s about replacing what’s not working with what actually moves the needle.
Many moms say they spend less time reacting, second-guessing, or lying awake at night—and more time feeling connected and in control. When you stop wasting time in power struggles or emotional spirals, you actually gain time. A few months from now, you’ll look back and realize this gave you far more than it asked of you.
What if I can’t make every call live?
No problem. All calls are recorded and stored in your private Vault so you can watch when it works for you. That said, live participation allows for real-time coaching and deeper growth—so we encourage you to attend when possible.
What if my teen is the real problem?
You’re not alone in feeling that way—but here’s the truth: you can’t control your teen. (And trying to will only wear you out.) What you can control is how you show up—and that’s where your real power lies.
In the TRUSTED Academy, we stop measuring success by our teen’s behavior and start measuring it by our own. You’ll learn how to lead with calm, confidence, and consistency—not through control, but through influence. And influence is what actually creates change that lasts.
