Walking (and Praying!) With Your Teen Through Anxiety with Amber Lia

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!


Watching your teen wrestle with anxiety—the spiraling thoughts, the isolation, the "what ifs" that feel so permanent—can break a parent's heart. But what if the path forward starts with empathy, God's Word, and a simple commitment to pray together?


This week on the Praying Christian Women podcast, join us for a conversation with author and mom of four boys, Amber Lia, about co-writing You Are Seen: 90 Devotions to Encourage Stressed and Anxious Teens with her son Ollie. Drawing from Ollie's raw journey through high school anxiety, a cross-country move, and finding hope in Scripture, Amber shares honest wisdom on blending practical steps (like the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique, better sleep, and therapy) with spiritual anchors—memorizing verses, fostering gratitude, and releasing unforgiveness to unlock God's peace.


From resisting "thoughts and prayers" skepticism to navigating teen pushback without overwhelming them, this episode equips parents and mentors with tools to walk alongside stressed kids, build resilience, and remind them that they are seen, treasured, and never alone.


You won't want to miss this heartfelt, hope-drenched conversation that could transform how you support the teens in your life—grab You Are Seen anywhere books are sold starting October 28th (tomorrow!).
