Juanita shares her journey as a single mother parenting her now 18-year-old daughter from age four, offering wisdom on co-parenting, building resilience, and evolving from teacher to coach.
• Transitioning from a two-parent household to single parenting requires choosing trust with both the co-parent and eventually the child
• The shift from teaching to coaching should happen earlier than most parents realize—around 8-9 years old in today's digital world
• Technology management requires open communication rather than excessive monitoring or restrictions
• Children need to experience hard things to build resilience—protecting them from struggle prevents growth
• Parents must recognize the difference between protecting from harm versus protecting from challenge
• Our children often reflect our own behaviors, offering opportunities for personal growth and self-reflection
• Allow your co-parent to parent in their own way—different doesn't mean wrong
