If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking “Maybe if I could just see what’s on her phone, I could fix this…” this episode is for you.

In today’s chat, we’re busting the myth that monitoring your daughter’s screen time is the key to keeping her safe and revealing what actually protects her mental health, emotional wellbeing, and developing nervous system.

We dive into:

• What’s really going on in her brain, body, and emotions right now (hint: it’s not just teen mood swings)
• How social media impacts her stress response and self-worth
• The physiology-first, play-based approach that works way better than spying on her screen
• One practical nervous system tip you can try today (no deep breathing skills required!)

I’m sharing insights from The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt, plus wisdom from brilliant minds like Physiology First University, Safe Screens Campaign, The Female Lead, and more.

If you’re ready to stop policing and start connecting, this is your episode.
