Podcast: Confidence Coaching with Heidi Benjaminsen

Ep. 164 Chapters of our Lives
Recently I attended a funeral where I learned about early “chapters” in the life of a dear family member, whom I’ve only know in the last chapters of their life. These remarks profoundly moved me and I wished I had known this person as a mother of teenagers, like I am now. I wish I

Ep. 163 How Teens “Map” Our Minds with Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife
For good and bad, our teens know what we are thinking, what makes us happy and sad, what stresses and overwhelmed us, our beliefs and values and much more.

Ep. 162 17 Ways Coaching Has Changed Me
In a casual conversation recently, a friend and I were discussing how principles of thought work, emotional regulation and all things coaching have changed us.

Hi, I’m Heidi
As a mother of three teenagers, I know the feeling of thinking I’m failing my children, wanting to control every choice they make and worrying about what may, or may not, happen in the future. It’s paralyzing and feels awful. It doesn’t HAVE to be that way.
As a Certified Life coach, I’ve learned what is really causing my anger and frustration – and amazingly – other people don’t need to change for me to feel better. I didn’t realize how dirty and foggy the lenses were through which I was judging my children. And myself. And the world.
I now help mothers of teenagers replace their fuzzy lenses with a unique and clear prescription. Wearing these lenses, my clients create life-changing confidence and calm that has positive ripple effects in every area of their life.
A confident mother is the greatest gift to her family.
