What if puberty wasn’t a crisis to manage, but a sacred initiation to honor?

In this deeply needed episode, I sit down with Dr. Tara Rawana, naturopathic doctor, youth educator, and co-founder of All About Mental Empowerment, to talk about what it really takes to raise emotionally grounded, confident daughters in today’s hyper-connected world.

We unpack the five stages of puberty, the impact of social media on body image, and the difference between just “educating” our daughters vs emotionally attuning to them. From shame-free sexuality talks to building trust and family connection, this episode is both a guide and a healing space for every parent navigating this rite of passage.

If you’re raising a daughter, or healing the girl you once were, this conversation is a must.
