Empowered Puberty for Girl Moms

Have you ever wondered what it’s really like for your husband to raise girls? Or how a dad thinks, feels, or worries about his daughters? In today’s episode, I sit down with my husband, Shaun, for a heartfelt “ask the girl dad” conversation. It's a really special and candid conversation I hope you find insightful and entertaining. We laugh. We (I) cry. And we definitely have a lot of fun. Here’s the power in today’s episode: • What Shaun never expected about being a girl dad • His biggest fears about raising daughters in today’s world • Why dads sometimes struggle to express feelings • His reaction to Aria starting puberty (and how he handled it) • What dads often get wrong in this stage • How he stays connected even as a busy dad • Simple confidence-building things dads can do daily • The ways we divide roles as parents in our home • Shaun’s best advice for dads who want to show up wellListen in if you want a real, heartfelt look inside a dad’s perspective... warm, honest, emotional, and full of those “oh wow, my partner probably feels that too” moments.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LITerally Magazine!⁠⁠⁠Subscribe HERE for 10% off!⁠⁠⁠*Don't forget to apply the code ADRIANE10Learn more about LITerally Magazine ⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠!RELATED EPISODES⁠Ep. 22- Moody or Misunderstood?

Do you ever wonder who and what is really shaping your daughter’s confidence, character, and faith every day? In this episode, we break down the role models and influencers that impact her life. And yes, we're talking about social media and celebrities, but also her friend group, teachers, and church family. We talk about how you, as her mom, can guide her in navigating these influences with awareness and intention.We start with ourselves as moms, reflecting on our own influences, from our friends and podcasts to the books we read, shows we watch, and music we listen to. Because the examples we set ripple into our daughters’ lives.Then we dive into our daughters’ world. We explore how to evaluate her friend group, the media she consumes, and the everyday voices that are shaping her identity, confidence, and internal dialogue. We talk about why it’s important to truly know her friends’ character, not just assume they’re “good influences” because of where they go to school or church.Finally, we discuss how to turn these reflections into everyday conversations (that don't feel preachy or like another "mom lecture") so that your daughter feels empowered asking these questions for herself. Here’s the power in today’s episode: • How your daughter is influenced every single day, and why awareness matters • How reflecting on your own influences helps you guide her intentionally • What to notice when evaluating her friend groups, media choices, and everyday role models • How to weave intentional conversations about influence into daily life — without being controlling • How asking the right reflective questions builds awareness and self-reflectionThis episode is packed with practical strategies for moms who want to raise confident, discerning girls who can navigate the world of influences with intentionality and empowerment.Listen in to feel empowered to take charge of who and what influences your girl. Because your intention makes all the difference.

Have you ever found yourself in that tricky spot as a mom, wondering how to guide your daughter through decisions about her health- especially when it comes to birth control? It can feel overwhelming, confusing, and sometimes even a little scary. In today’s episode, I sit down with Tianna Trinidad to dive deep into how moms and daughters can approach birth control with confidence, curiosity, and empowerment.We talk about the real challenges in the current medical system, why birth control is so often the default recommendation, and how moms can help their daughters develop body literacy and make informed choices that honor both their health and intuition. Whether your daughter is approaching puberty, already navigating her first periods, or you just want to feel prepared for those conversations ahead, this episode is packed with insight, perspective, and encouragement.⸻Here’s the power in today’s episode: • Understand the systemic reasons why birth control is often prescribed first, and why it might not always be the best option. • Learn how body literacy can change the way girls experience their cycles - knowledge is empowerment! • Explore alternatives to hormonal birth control and what moms need to know about supporting their daughters’ health. • Discover ways to have honest, safe, and empowering conversations about health and consent. • Reflect on the role of intuition and personal research in making decisions for your daughter’s body.⸻This episode isn’t about telling moms or daughters what to do- it’s about giving you the tools, language, and confidence to make thoughtful, informed choices together. Tianna and I unpack the myths, the risks, and the practical realities of hormonal birth control, so you can feel empowered in guiding your daughter toward a healthy and confident understanding of her body.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODES⁠⁠Ep. 11- Decision Making: Teach Her to Use Her B.R.A.I.NEp. 24 — Rant: Why Every Tween Should Learn to Cycle Chart (Before Ever Touching an App)CONNECT WITH TIANNA TRINIDADWebsite: LoveServedWarm.comInstagram: @loveservedwarmFree Baby Ready WorkbookFree Skool CommunityPCOS and Prosecco PodcastCONNECT WITH ADRIANEInstagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empowered_womb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email- adriane@empoweredwomb.comHOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCEFOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on your favorite podcast playerRATE the podcastREVIEW the podcastSHARE this podcast episode with a friend!

Remember when “dating” meant passing notes and using the family landline? Yeah... those days are gone. Today’s girls are navigating crushes, relationships, and validation in an entirely different world- one that moves at the speed of a Snapchat streak.In this episode, I sit down with Kaase Levell, host of the podcast FR, Let’s Talk: Real Talk + Biblical Truth for Christian Teen Girls, to unpack what dating looks like for girls today and how moms can guide them through it with truth, connection, and open conversations.Here’s the power in today’s episode: • The biggest cultural and spiritual shifts in how girls view dating today • How strict “no dating” rules can backfire and what to do instead • The key to creating a safe home where honesty thrives over secrecy • Why it’s not wrong for your daughter to have a crush (and how to talk about it Biblically) • What to say when your daughter starts showing interest in boys • Why girls are often chasing affection and how to redirect that longing toward GodIf you’ve ever wondered how early is too early to talk about dating, or worried you’ll say the wrong thing, this conversation will give you a roadmap grounded in Scripture and connection.This one’s real, raw, and full of wisdom for moms who want to raise daughters confident in their worth and who will be patient for the love God’s writing into their story.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODES⁠Bonus: The “E” Word… What Empowered REALLY MeansEp. 9- The Truth About Comparison with Traci PetersonEp. 12- Girl Drama with Sheri GazittEpisode 28: 3 Questions Every Girl Mom Must Ask Her Tween DaughterCONNECT WITH KAASE LEVELWebsite:www.frletstalk.comPodcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fr-letʼs-talk-real-talk-biblical-truth-for-christian/id1803661179YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@FRLetsTalkTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@frletstalk?_t=ZT-90YMz5RjE3p&_r=1CONNECT WITH ADRIANEInstagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empowered_womb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email- adriane@empoweredwomb.comHOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCEFOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on your favorite podcast playerRATE the podcastREVIEW the podcastSHARE this podcast episode with a friend!

“Mama, why do you wear makeup?”That simple question from my sweet girl spiraled me into one of the most powerful realizations I’ve had as a mom raising daughters in today’s beauty-obsessed culture.Our girls are always watching. They’re learning not just what we do- but WHY we do it. And that’s why, in this episode, I’m sharing the two key questions every mom should ask before making choices around beauty, aging, and appearance- the same ones I pray my daughters will ask for themselves someday.Because whether it’s makeup, skincare, nails, exercise, clothes, or even Botox… our motivation matters.⸻💡 Here’s the power in today’s episode:​The one question that reframed how I approach every beauty choice (and how it changed what I model to my daughters)​How to know if you’re choosing from empowerment or fear- and why that distinction changes everything​Why our culture’s obsession with youth may actually stem from something much deeper than vanity​A new way to view aging that brings freedom, gratitude, and groundedness​How to teach your daughter to feel beautiful with or without the extras⸻If you’ve ever wrestled with how to guide your daughter through beauty culture without swinging to extremes, this episode will ground you in truth, peace, and practical reflection.You’ll walk away with the two most important questions to ask before you (or your daughter) buy that next serum, schedule that next appointment, or compare yourself to that influencer online.Listen now and let me know your thoughts!EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODESEp. 15- Birthday Reflections- Confidence, All or Nothing, & Real SurrenderEp. 17-Skincare, Sephora, & Tweens, Oh My!

If you’ve ever wondered what it might really look like to homeschool through the tween years (while balancing your own identity, your child’s independence, and maybe even your own personal challenges) this conversation will speak right to your heart.In this episode, I sit down with Bethanyanne Howard, a Charlotte Mason-inspired homeschooling mom whose story is deeply rooted in grace, grit, and the belief that our daughters deserve to be treated as whole, capable people. From fostering autonomy to embracing imperfection, Bethanyanne shares what it means to be mom first, teacher second, and how her own physical challenges have actually become a powerful model of perseverance and resilience for her daughter.THE POWER IN TODAY'S EPISODE:You’ll discover how being flexible, asking quality questions, and trusting your daughter’s innate curiosity can strengthen your bond during these transforming tween years and how homeschooling can be less about structure and more about shared growth, connection, and mutual respect.Key Topics: • What it really looks like to homeschool through the tween years • Fostering autonomy and independence in your daughter • The Charlotte Mason philosophy and respecting the child as a whole person • Parenting through physical challenges and modeling perseverance • How to be “mom first, teacher second”Whether you homeschool or not, this episode will leave you rethinking what it means to raise an independent, empowered girl who feels seen, supported, and capable.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered for Life Coaching Community- Check it Out ⁠HERE⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODES:Ep. 11- Decision Making: Teach Her to Use Her B.R.A.I.NCONNECT WITH BETHANYANNE HOWARD:​Website- LittleWorldWanderers.comInstagram- @little_worldwanderersThe Mother's CirceCONNECT WITH ADRIANE:​Instagram- ⁠⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠⁠​Instagram- ⁠⁠@empowered_womb⁠⁠​Website- ⁠⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠⁠Email- adriane@empoweredwomb.comHOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE:​Subscribe/ Follow the podcast on your favorite podcast player​Rate the podcast​Review the podcast​Share this podcast episode with a friend!

Have you ever looked up from your phone and realized you missed a moment- a question, a laugh, eye contact- simply because a scroll pulled you away? It’s a quiet heartbreak so many moms carry. We don’t want to be distracted… yet the pull of social media so often wins, leaving us feeling guilty, scattered, and wondering if we’re modeling the attention and presence we hope our kids will give their families.That’s why today’s conversation with Mari Wuellner is so powerful. Mari is a mom and business owner who took a bold three-month sabbatical from all social media- no posting, no stories, no scrolling. What she discovered might just challenge everything you believe about presence, purpose, and how we connect in a screen-saturated world.Mari shares:​The surprising moments she would’ve completely missed if she’d been focused on documenting them.​How her kids responded when she was finally fully with them (not half in a scroll).​Why her creativity, clarity, and even her business grew when she logged off.​What she’d tell any mom craving more life and less digital noise.​Practical wisdom for taking your own social media break — and how (or if) to return.Here’s the Power in Today’s Episode:​A real-life look at what a social media sabbatical can unlock.​A challenge to rethink how we model presence for our daughters.​Permission to protect your peace, your mind, and your motherhood — without fear of "missing out".Because sometimes the most powerful thing a mother can do… is look up.EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered for Life Coaching Community- Check it Out HEREPeriod Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODESMom Guilt with Mari WuellnerCONNECT WITH MARI WUELLNER​Unplugged Email Newsletter​Website- MariWuellnerCoaching.com​Instagram- ⁠@mariwuellner⁠​The Crew Life Coaching CollectiveCONNECT WITH ADRIANE​Instagram- ⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠​Instagram- ⁠@empowered_womb⁠​Website- ⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE ​Subscribe/ Follow the podcast on your favorite podcast player​Rate the podcast​Review the podcast​Share this podcast episode with a friend!

If you’ve ever wondered where your daughter is at in her puberty journey or how to talk about all the changes without making it weird or overwhelming… this quick episode is for you.The 5 stages of puberty — also known as the Tanner Stages — can be an incredibly helpful roadmap for moms who want to guide their daughters with confidence and calm. Instead of puberty feeling like it “just appears out of nowhere,” these stages help both of you see what’s happening in her body as a normal, natural process.👉 Here’s the power in today’s episode:Today’s episode is intentionally short and simple — because this whole puberty thing doesn’t have to be complicated. I’ll walk you through a quick, step-by-step breakdown of how to actually use the 5 Stages of Puberty to start meaningful, positive conversations with your daughter.You’ll learn how to: • Use the 5 Stages of Female Puberty guide to identify which stage your daughter is in (link below- see the Free Empowered Puberty Checklist!) • Introduce the topic in a way that feels natural (and not awkward!) • Encourage her to observe her body with curiosity and respect • Keep the conversation going as she grows and changesSometimes we over complicate this stage of parenting, but it really can be light, empowering, and even fun.And if you’ve noticed your daughter having a totally different experience with puberty than you ever did? That’s because of YOU, mama. Your openness, your willingness and determination to make this better for her - that’s what’s helping to create an empowered generation of girls.So grab the freebie, plan a time to sit down together, and remember: you are an empowered mom, raising an empowered girl. 💛EMPOWERED RESOURCESFree Empowered Puberty Checklist for Girl Moms- Grab it ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Cycle Charting for Her- Check It Out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Period Kit- Check out RedDrop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RELATED EPISODESEp. 3- The Truth About Puberty- Ages, Stages, & Your Role as MomEp. 21- Her Period: 3 Things No One Told YouCONNECT WITH ADRIANEInstagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empowered_womb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email- adriane@empoweredwomb.comHOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE- ​FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on your favorite podcast player​- RATE the podcast- ​REVIEW the podcast- ​SHARE this podcast episode with a friend!

The world feels incredibly heavy right now. And as moms, it's tough enough to even keep it all together, let alone figure out how we model for our daughters how NOT to live in fear.I'll be honest- I’ve legitimately considered pulling my girls from school, buying a piece of land in the middle of nowhere, and building a bunker to hide from the rest of society. 🙋‍♀️ Can you relate?I resisted recording this episode. I didn’t want to use Charlie Kirk’s name for clickbait or contribute even one iota to the noise that's already out there.

Not perfection. Not people-pleasing.True, lasting transformation and empowerment.These questions aren’t scripts or strategies.They’re simple, powerful tools that help our girls pause, reflect, and tune in — to their values, their body’s wisdom, and their connection with God.And the third question I share?It might just be the most important one she (or you) will ever ask. 💛If you want to raise a daughter who feels confident in her choices — not because you told her what to do, but because she knows how to listen inward and upward — press play on this one.Your Next Best StepWhat quality question stood out to you?
