Parenting adult children is hard. That’s because most parents don’t pivot. Doing life with your adult children means keeping your mouth shut and the welcome mat out. It’s time for Mom and Dad to pivot from parent to partner.
That’s what The Parent Pivot Podcast is all about. Join Steve and Julia Cummings each week as they help parents of adult children navigate life in real time with honesty and authenticity.

Are you sighing instead of speaking? Dropping “harmless” hints instead of having the hard conversations?
This week on The Parent Pivot Podcast we're unpacking the oh-so-common (but rarely productive) dance of passive-aggressive behavior with our adult children. Why do we do it? What’s it costing us? And how can we pivot to healthier, more honest communication?
Tune in if you’ve ever said “I’m fine” when you definitely weren’t — and wished your adult child could just read your mind.
Real talk. No judgment. Just tools, insight, and maybe a little humor to help you show up as the parent you want to be — not the one who texts with a guilt trip.
