Plan P
Sarah Pollak & Quinn Faison
Parenting teens? Take it from two people who have been there, done that and came out on the other side with trusting relationships with their now-adult children. Prior to even considering coaching and podcasting, they got their most valuable certification - the approval of their now adult children. Join parenting coach duo, Sarah Pollak and Quinn Faison, every week as they share both their personal and professional experiences on building healthy relationships with preteens, teens and young adults as they enter adulthood. If you aren’t happy with your teen’s behavior, need parenting help, or just want to be a better parent, this show is for you. Parenting is one of the most rewarding experiences, but it’s no walk in the park - especially as your not-so-little-one becomes an ever-evolving teenager!

Listen to the last episode:
In this episode, we’re in for a special treat as we sit down with Ann Faison—a mother of two adolescents, artist, author, teacher, wife, and so much more. Ann shares her powerful insights on parenting, particularly the intersection of grief and growth that comes with raising children through all stages. Ann opens up about her personal journey and the lessons she's learned along the way, especially the importance of providing consistency and encouragement for her children. She speaks beautifully about the challenges of miscommunication in parenting and how it led to transformative change within her family. As they navigated these challenges, Ann and her family learned to understand each other on a deeper level and address the underlying needs and issues that arose. Ultimately, Ann came to a profound understanding of what she could—and could not—control or fully comprehend in her role as a parent, and she shares how she learned to be okay with that. It’s a heartfelt conversation about the inner work of parenting, the importance of support for parents, and the resilience that comes with growth, both as individuals and as a family. Tune in for a conversation filled with wisdom, vulnerability, and the reality that parenting, at its core, is a journey of learning and unlearning. https://www.helpwithgrief.me/about-ann https://substack.com/@annfaison transformingfamily.org
