Why Tone Matters with Your Teen Daughter
Update: 2025-06-29
Description
In this episode, we talk about a parenting tool that is underestimated: tone of voice. As moms of tween and teen girls, how we say things often matters more than what we say. During adolescence, a girl’s brain is rewiring and more reactive to emotional cues—especially tone. Your voice becomes her inner voice, shaping how she sees herself and how she handles relationships in the future.
Dr. Kim breaks down the science behind this sensitivity, shares practical tools to shift your tone toward calm and connection, and reveals how everyday moments of communication leave lasting emotional imprints. You’ll learn how to avoid the “tone traps” of sarcasm, correction, and dismissive language—and replace them with language that nurtures confidence, emotional safety, and resilience.
If you’ve ever wondered why your daughter reacts so strongly even when you're not “yelling,” this episode is for you. Tune in to learn how to use your voice not as a weapon or a wedge—but as a bridge.
