The Problem

Although we’re being kinda playful about your daughter “freaking out” about what’s next, we know you’ve been through some tough times, and that stress and anxiety are at an all-time high for teenagers.

According to Dr. Sarah McKay, Author of The Women’s’ Brain Book: The Neuroscience of Health, Hormones and Happiness, “We all respond to stress in a variety of ways, and whether an event is a ‘stressor’ varies from person to person.” And Dr. McKay goes on to say that “We feel stressed when real or imagined pressures exceed or perceived ability to cope.”

Everything You Need

So, today we’re offering a simple Formula that will boost your daughter’s resilience by giving her what she needs to make calm, logical and confident decisions about her future.

If you’ve been listening for a while, you’ve heard us lovingly nudge your daughter to devote some quality time to developing a strong sense of self.

Because, as parents, you know that a strong sense of self will likely:
- steer your daughter away from “iffy” or “risky” social situations
- help her avoid iceberg beliefsthat can sabotage relationship
- and help her create a path that promotes personal growth

Okay, now … let’s imagine for a minute, that your daughter wakes up every morning READY for whatever comes her way - would it be worth it?

Everyone wants to bounce back from life’s challenges and detours, and we bet your daughter feels that way, too.

And, if you’re familiar with the saying that “worrying is like a rocking chair: it will give you something to do but you won’t get you anywhere.”
