"If I were you I will listen to my mom" vs "If I were you I would listen to my mom"

The correct phrase is 'if I were you, I would listen to my mom.' The use of 'would' in the second clause of the conditional sentence is the correct form to express a hypothetical situation. 'Will' is not used in this context.
