A Simple Way to Calm Yourself!


Hi friend,

Have you ever wished for a quick reset button when stress hits—like when your teen is shutting down, emotions are running high, or you just feel completely overwhelmed?

That’s exactly what my guest, Barb Fletcher, helps people discover. Barb is a Certified HeartMath® Coach and Stress Mastery Educator, and her superpower is translating cutting-edge science into simple, practical tools we can actually use in our busy lives.

In this week’s episode, Barb shares:

  • What “coherence” really means (and why it matters for parents and teens)
  • A powerful two-minute practice you can do anytime, anywhere to reset stress
  • How small shifts in your energy can help calm your teen—even in tense moments

I’ll be honest—when Barb walked me through her Quick Coherence® technique during our conversation, I felt calmer and lighter right away. And the best part? It’s something your teen can practice at their desk in class, before a test, or even quietly in a stressful moment—without anyone even noticing.

If you’re looking for something that doesn’t add more to your plate but helps you feel more in control, connected, and resilient—this episode is for you.

After you try the Quick Coherence® technique, I’d love to hear what you notice. Just hit reply and let me know!

With calm,
Cynthia

Week #4 for my Birthday Month Gifts!

Parenting an anxious teen or young adult can feel like walking through a maze without a map.

That’s why I created Your Family’s Next Step Sessions — a private concierge-style call where we’ll:

  • Talk about what your teen is struggling with right now
  • Look inside Parenting Through the Anxiety Maze and pinpoint resources that fit your family
  • Explore whether 1:1 coaching could be the right next step for extra support

By the end of our time together, you’ll leave with a clear plan for how to move forward — and the confidence of knowing you don’t have to figure it out alone.

🎉 Because it’s my Birthday Month, I’m opening a handful of these sessions. (After this month, only a few will be available each month.)
