Let me guess… your teen is spending a lot of time:
📱 Scrolling their phone on social media
🎮 Playing video games
📺 Or Netflixing so much it stopped asking if they were still watching…
You want to get your teen motivated again—this Motivation Cheat Sheet is going to help you do it.
Fill out the form and get instant access to your free Motivation Cheat Sheet where you’ll learn about three things that make up motivation, signs your teen is lacking in them, and action steps to take for each!
Does any of this sound familiar?
❌ Your teen procrastinates on everything, from homework to basic responsibilities.
❌ They give up too quickly when things get tough.
❌ They don’t seem to care about their future—or they don’t know what they want.
❌ You feel like you have to nag, bribe, or argue just to get them to do the bare minimum.
You’re not alone! Most parents struggle with this—but there’s a better way.
Instead of trying to “motivate” your teen the hard way, this cheat sheet will help you understand what’s really blocking their motivation and give you simple, actionable steps to help them move forward.
Imagine This…
No more nagging, arguing, or bribing just to get your teen to finish their homework, clean their room, or plan for their future.
Instead, your teen:
✅ Takes ownership of their responsibilities—without constant reminders.
✅ Pushes through challenges instead of giving up at the first sign of difficulty.
✅ Sets goals and follows through—whether it’s in school, hobbies, or future plans.
✅ Feels confident in their abilities and starts taking real steps toward independence
And you? You get to step back and breathe—knowing your teen is learning the skills they need to succeed in life, not just today, but for years to come.
Sound like a dream? It’s possible—and this cheat sheet will show you how.

“Both our kids were in traditional therapy and not getting anywhere. We realized that about a year into therapy, they didn't need help dissecting the past but needed help in the present day and planning for the future. Traditional therapy just wasn't the right fit. I found Dr. McNally via Instagram and started following her. I was excited to see her posts and learn about her approach, as it seemed to be exactly what our kids needed.
Dr. McNally's kind, supportive demeanor resonated with both my teenagers, and they have both worked with Dr. McNally. They have learned new ways to frame their thoughts, how understand and develop their life values and plan for their futures, but we saw the biggest impact from her working with our 17-year-old son.
Our son went from a narrow-minded approach to his future (specifically around college) to an open mind, exploring a variety of colleges, thinking outside the box, working on his life values, and how to use those values to help shape his future. Dr. McNally even taught our son how to organize and schedule his life so he could learn to prioritize time doing what he loves most: being outside. Our son just graduated high school and is heading to a college that wasn't even on his radar 18 months ago; I am convinced we are where we are today with our kids because Dr. McNally has a gift for working with teens.
My kids are thriving, and so much of the credit goes to Dr. McNally; she has done what we as parents couldn't do for our kids, partly because we lack the skill set and mostly because teenagers don't want advice or coaching from parents!”
