Reframing Me - Self-Development & Parenting Teens for Midlife Moms
Your kids are growing up - but so are you. Reframing Me is the podcast for moms of teens ready to reframe family, identity, and self-development in midlife.
Parenting teens is hard -and parenting while rediscovering yourself in midlife can feel even harder. Reframing Me is the parenting podcast for moms raising teenagers who are also navigating the transition out of hands-on motherhood, identity shifts, and the search for balance, fulfillment, and self-development.
Hosted by Dr. Jennifer Brubaker, a Communication Studies professor, mom of three teens, and intrapersonal communication expert, each episode blends family communication strategies, honest conversations about parenting teens, and self-reflection tools to help moms strengthen family relationships while rediscovering who they are as women.
Together we’ll talk about the issues moms face but don’t always say out loud: changing family dynamics, feeling invisible, letting go of control, and creating new purpose. Through research, theory, and compassionate conversation, you’ll find support, strategies, and a sense of community in this season of parenting and personal growth.
Join the Reframing Me community to connect with other midlife moms, share your stories, and reframe how you see yourself, your family, and your future.

Reframing Me - Self-Development & Parenting Teens for Midlife Moms
Jen is Zen - Harmony Over Balance
In this Jen is Zen , we explore the difference between balance and harmony in midlife. Balance often feels like an impossible demand, dividing time, energy, and attention equally across parenting teens, family communication, relationships, career, and self-care. Harmony, on the other hand, invites flow, flexibility, and grace. Harmony can help us navigate midlife transitions, embrace both joy and struggle, and live with more peace and presence. This episode offers inspiration for women seeking midlife empowerment, identity rediscovery, personal growth, and stress relief, reminding us that even when life isn’t balanced, it can still be harmonious.
