That slammed door? It’s not just teenage attitude. It’s her nervous system trying to cope.
In this real-talk episode, I unpack what’s really going on behind the mood swings, shutdowns, and outbursts - and how you can respond without losing your own sanity in the process.
Because here’s the truth:
Your daughter’s brain is still developing.
Her body is overloaded.
Her hormones are cycling - often with the moon.
And her behaviours? They’re messages, not just meltdowns.
We’ll cover:
- What her slammed door is trying to tell you
- How her body reacts before her brain does
- Why 1 in 3 UK teen girls report high anxiety levels - and what’s behind that
- One powerful tip to help her (and you) reset in 90 seconds
You’ll leave this episode thinking: “Ahhh, okay - now this makes sense.”
