LAUNCH: Parenting Tips for Raising Adult Children & Building Better RelationshipsAuthor: Shari Jonas - Parenting Expert, Family Educator and Author
If youre 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.

#95: The Conversation Every Parent of a Struggling Adult Child Must Have
Monday, 19 October, 2026
Send us Fan MailToday’s episode is a topic that almost every parent with an adult child who is not moving forward needs to hear, which is why I want to talk about it. And yes, it’s just me.This is by far one of the hardest conversations you'll ever have. Sitting down with your adult child to talk about the way they've been living and that it can no longer continue makes parents very uncomfortable because of the reactions they know they’re going to get. But you can’t avoid this discussion any longer. Or perhaps, it’s time to revisit it again, only differently. I’ll share what you shouldn’t say and what you can say that will help set things in motion. I’ll be honest, this conversation is only the beginning. The follow through is where the work begins. If you feel you need help, let’s do this together. With your adult child, too. Reach out. I’m easy to find and easier to talk to.
