About the episode

In this episode Jenn and Jess tackle female hormones and teen girls. Many parents roll their eyes when the topic of teenage hormones comes up. There’s general confusion about how to help girls move through puberty and a general resignation to the idea that periods can be painful and moods are bound to be volatile. But Jenn is changing all that. She helps girls and women take control of their health and hormones by understanding the power of their bodies and their cycles. Since she uses food as an integral tool for helping people manage their hormones, we talked about how we can motivate girls to embrace their bodies and support their health as they move through the teen years. Jenn drops some golden advice for any mother trying to help their teen girls make healthy choices.
