Help Us Name Our Talking Teddy! + What Do You DO when BIG feeling show up in your house?


We Want to Hear From You Reader!

In The Happiness Path Group & THP Hangouts, we have a teddy we pass around when someone shares something.
Teddy has been part of laughter, connection, courage, and brave shares…but doesn’t have a name yet.

We’d love the community to name him.

What should our talking teddy be called?

Reply with your ideas: silly, sweet, meaningful -all welcome.

We’ll announce the winning name soon!

What Do You DO when BIG feeling show up in your house?

One of the things we care about most inside the Raising Resilient Teen Girls community is this:

You and your teen get to feel what you feel.

So today I thought I'd do something a little different and ask you a few questions. No right answers. Just noticing what comes up.

When big feelings show up in your house, what helps them move through?

A) Is it movies that make you cry or music that hits deep?
B) Taking some space then coming back
C) Writing it, going for a walk, driving with the window down or another way to move the emotion outside of the body?
D) Talking it out… or sitting quietly together?

When I’m overwhelmed, I’m most likely to:
A) Distract myself
B) Push through
C) Numb out
D) Feel it through (cry, music, movies, etc.)

When my teen is overwhelmed, I notice they tend to:
A) Withdraw
B) Get irritable
C) Stay busy
D) Seek comfort or connection

🧡 There is no “better than" answer here 🧡

This is simply about becoming aware.

Because once we notice how we cope, we get more choice.

Inside everything we do at Pyramid Psychology, the groups, the guides, the events, the emails, we are always asking one core question:

In what way is this serving our community (teen girls + parents)?

Thank you for being part of a community that believes emotions are not something to be fixed, they are so much more.

With so much gratitude,

Happy New Year Reader! Welcome to the Raising Resilient Teen Girls Community- so glad you're here. If you've been here a while, thank you for being a fan. If you're new welcome! Can we talk feelings for a minute? I often hear a version of this when working with teen girls, "I can't cry" or "I know I need to let my emotions out, but I can't seem to" And sometimes when we don't how to help those feelings move through us, we find other means to cope. In being more direct and honest with you......

Hello again Reader, And if you're new to the community, welcome! This season often invites reflection on what’s been done, what’s unfinished, and what we hope will be different in the new year. For many teens, that reflection can quickly turn into self-criticism. One simple resilience building message we can offer as parents, guides, & mentors to them (and to ourselves 😉) is this: You are allowed to be where you are. You are enough exactly where you are. Resilience isn’t built by constantly...
