Teen Whisperer Podcast: Understanding Behavioural Messages in Girls
This is THE podcast for mums of girls - tweens, teens and young women - who want to understand what the frigg is really going on beneath the tricky behaviour and big emotions, so you can stop second guessing, feel confident again and truly connect with your daughter.
Too often we're told it's "just" hormones, emotions or that they're too sensitive. But what if I told you there's something else at play? Something no one talks about - the body sending messages through behaviour. These are natural responses to an unnatural world, and when you understand them, you can start responding with insight not frustration.
Shocked, inspired, eyes wide open - that's what I want for you. To realise that so much of what we've been told about parenting is a lie, wrapped up in control, pressure and guilt. The world isn't set up for our girls - yes even in 2025 - but there is a different way. A way that puts understanding, connection and community first. A way that helps you see the root cause, understand what's happening and know exactly what you can do in the moment.
Let's make this a revolution - one episode at a time - so our girls grow up feeling seen, safe and capable... and we can stop trying to parent from fear and start parenting from insight.

When Screens Steal the Season: Understanding Teenage Behaviour & Girls Mental Health
Holidays are meant to feel lighter… so why does it sometimes feel like your daughter has disappeared into her phone and you’re left snapping, worrying, and wondering where you went wrong?
In this episode of The Teen Whisperer, we’re talking honestly about screens, social media, and why tech so often steals the season especially for tween and teen girls.
This isn’t about banning phones or blaming yourself. It’s about understanding what screens are actually doing to your daughter’s nervous system (and yours), why willpower isn’t the problem, and how to create realistic boundaries that don’t blow up your relationship.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why social media is designed to be addictive and why your daughter isn’t “weak” for struggling
- The 5 signs tech is impacting your daughter’s wellbeing
- How comparison quietly erodes girls’ confidence and sense of self
- What physiology before psychology really means when it comes to screens
- Simple, doable tools to reduce tech battles and support self-regulation — even during the holidays
If you’re a mum who feels like you’re failing, nagging, or constantly second-guessing yourself, this episode is for you.
You’re not alone.
You’re not doing it wrong.
And there is another way forward 💛
Because remember: it’s physiology before psychology. Always.
