Farnoosh sits down with Bridget KerMorris, a Stanford-trained attorney, relational therapist, creator of the Steady + Connected Parenting™ framework, and mom of seven, to discuss why the middle school years may be the most critical—and misunderstood—season of parenting. Together they explore: Why ages 10–13 are a pivotal window for building lifelong trust How to respond to bullying, friendship drama, and emotional outbursts The words every middle schooler needs to hear from their parents How to repair after conflict instead of striving for perfection Navigating phones, social media, and the pressure to fit in Teaching kids about money, expensive wants, allowances, and delayed gratification Why emotional presence may be the greatest investment parents can make Whether you're raising a tween now or your child is heading toward middle school, this conversation offers practical tools, reassuring perspective, and a powerful reminder that your relationship—not your perfection—is what matters most. More about Bridget: Bridget KerMorris is a nationally recognized middle school parenting expert, relational therapist, and creator of Steady + Connected Parenting™ . She is also the host of the new podcast, Middle Years with Bridget KerMorris . Learn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand. Early bird registration is now open!
