In this episode, we’re joined by Phoebe Barnes — teacher, mentor, and advocate for student wellbeing and positive mental health.

Phoebe shares her passion for supporting young girls through her program Grounded Girls, which is designed to empower teenagers to feel confident, capable, and supported both in school and in life. We explore the unique challenges girls face during adolescence and the importance of education, open conversations, and creating safe spaces for growth.

This conversation also touches on navigating “girl world” — including understanding the menstrual cycle, building self-awareness, and developing tools to support emotional wellbeing during these formative years.

An insightful and empowering episode for parents, educators, and anyone supporting young women through adolescence.
