When was the last time you described a teenage girl as wise, powerful, curious, and kind? It’s not the norm-but it should!
That’s the mission of Chelsey Goodan, author of the groundbreaking new book UNDERESTIMATED: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls.
Chelsey shatters the image of the “dramatic” and “hormonal” teenage girl and corrects the course so parents, teachers, and society see them for their potential instead of their flaws.
Chelsey draws on her decades of work with teenage girls, both as a sought-after tutor and mentor, to discuss what empowerment really looks like.
Listen to Chelsey Goodan in this far-reaching conversation with host Demetra Ganias to both debunk the myths of teenage girls and learn tangible steps to, quite literally, rewrite the conversation with our daughters.
Chelsey offers effective strategies to:
*stop fixing a teen’s problems and give her space to solve her own dilemma, leading her to self trust
*minimize criticism and judgment to avoid having girls become distant and putting up walls
*allow girls to feel all emotions and grow from negative experiences
*teach mothers how to stop the cycle of projecting our own stories onto our daughters
