Parenting Tips for Moms and Dads of School-aged Children & Teenagers
Welcome to the Impactful Parenting Podcast
The Impactful Parenting Podcast helps parents turn their chaos into connection with their children. Through meaningful stories, the podcast provides parenting tips for making family life easier!
Why? Because school-aged children bring different challenges to parenting that younger kids don’t! The Impactful Parenting Podcast provides help for raising your adolescent child.
So if you’re asking yourself questions like:
• "What age should a child get a phone?"
• ”Why is my teenager doing this?”
• "Does my child have ADHD or just high energy?"
• "How to talk to my teen about depression."
• ”Is anyone else experiencing this? I can’t be the only one.”
• ”What are outdoor learning activities for kids?"
Then YOU HAVE FOUND THE RIGHT PLACE!
Hi! I am Kristina Campos. I am the founder of the Impactful Parent and my passion is creating better relationships between parents and their children. I am a parenting coach, a teacher who has taught every grade level from Pre-K through high school, and most importantly, I am a mom of 4 kids! (Yep, those are my kiddos in the podcast photo).
The teen years don’t need to be difficult. Teenagers CAN have a special bond with their parents! Listen and discover the tools and techniques you need to create connections, build trust, and have a stress-free household. This is only the beginning! Let’s get started, together!

The Mother Load: The hidden load of the primary caregiver of children.
In this podcast, I examine what I call The Mother Load. The Mother Load is an often unseen burden on the primary caregiver of children. It consists of the collection of responsibilities of parenthood, coupled with the mental load of NEVER having a break from being a parent. Discover more about the Mother Load and how moms can better their situation.
This episode is for all the moms out there who are tired but still doing their best. The ones who selflessly and with love take on the whole Mother Load for their family.
