Reader The other a day a parent messaged me, “With the current strike, connection opportunities are being lost and we so appreciate what you are doing,” …it completely warmed my heart. 💛 And it got me thinking about how connection is not just nice to have, it’s essential. Everyone deserves to feel connected. It’s through connection that courage grows.It’s through connection that confidence builds.It’s through connection that we remember we’re not alone. That’s exactly why Michelle and I...

Happy Tuesday Reader, Here's my honest opinion about the “find your people” trend after 15+ years of working with teen girls: It’s got a hopeful message, but it’s being sold like a finished product instead of a practice. Right now, the message teen girls hear sounds like: “Once you find your friend group, you’re set.” Social feeds, group chats, and curated highlights make friendship look like a checklist, same hobbies, same aesthetic, same inside jokes. So when that tidy fit doesn’t happen,...

Reader- how are you doing today? I'm on a rest day today, so I'm feeling pretty good, a little ancy to run again, and a little tender in some spots. As I train for my half-marathon, it's got me thinking a lot about the mind training aspect. Confidence specifically. I hear so many teen girls treat confidence like a light switch, either it’s on or it’s not. They wait for one big moment to prove to themselves they’re confident: the right party invite, the perfect friend group, a flawless...

Happy Thanksgiving WeekendReader. My gratitude practice just hit 180 days and it’s changed the way I see myself. As a teen, I spent so much energy wishing my body looked different. I wanted straight hair, an “inny” belly button, smaller calves. I thought confidence would come after I “fixed” myself. Now, after years of working with teen girls (and a whole lot of my own growth), I see that so many are caught in that same loop- scrolling, comparing, criticizing, and changing to fit an...

Hello Reader? Isn't it one of the hardest things to witness as a parent: your daughter coming home teary-eyed to find out she heard about friends having group plans she wasn’t part of. You want to fix it. To remind her how wonderful she is. But deep down you know you can’t protect her from every friendship storm. What you can do is walk beside her, helping her find resilience, courage to keep going and reminding her she is not alone. Why it hurts so much Humans (and especially teenagers) are...
