Teen Whisperer Podcast: Understanding Behavioural Messages in Girls
Parenting support for strengthening your mother daughter relationship starts here. Learn how to understand adolescent behaviour. Whether your daughter is a tween, teen or young woman - and you want to understand what the frigg is really going on beneath the tricky behaviour and big emotions, this is the podcast for you. Discover what’s really going on so you can stop second guessing, feel confident again and improve your mother/daughter relationship with your daughter.
Too often we're told it's "just" hormones, emotions or that they're too sensitive. But what if I told you there's something else at play? Something no one talks about - the body sending messages through behaviour. These are natural responses to an unnatural world, and when you understand them, you can start responding with insight not frustration.
Shocked, inspired, eyes wide open - that's what I want for you. To realise that so much of what we've been told about parenting is a lie, wrapped up in control, pressure and guilt. The world isn't set up for our girls - yes even now - but there is a different way. A way that puts understanding, connection and community first. A way that helps you see the root cause, understand what's happening and know exactly what you can do in the moment.
Let's make this a revolution - one episode at a time - so our girls grow up feeling seen, safe and capable... and we can stop trying to parent from fear and start parenting from insight.

Why Encouragement Backfires: Understanding Freeze Response in Girls' Mental Health
If your daughter often shuts down when you offer encouragement, withdraws when things get difficult, or loses motivation under pressure, this episode is essential listening for you.
I explore the ins and outs of girls' mental health and the freeze response that can cause teenage behaviour to seem like defiance or laziness. Discover why the common phrase "You've got this" can sometimes deepen her shutdown and what the freeze response feels like within her body and mind.
I discuss how overwhelm affects her confidence and self-belief, why avoidance is often a form of protection rather than rebellion, and most importantly, how to rebuild her confidence through parenting support that emphasizes safety and patience.
This episode provides a nervous-system-led reframe designed to strengthen the mother-daughter relationship without pressure, helping you understand the behavioural messages your daughter is sending.
By tuning in, you'll learn how to support your girl's mental health and foster growth with empathy and insight, paving the way for a stronger, more connected relationship.
Join my free webinar, “Become Your Own Teen Whisperer,” and discover how to reach your daughter when she shuts down.
