Don’t be so sensitive.”

“It’s just banter.”

“That’s just how boys are.”

Sound familiar? These aren’t harmless comments — they’re signals your daughter may be learning to ignore just to stay safe.

In this episode, we unpack what’s really happening when girls experience everyday disrespect — whether that’s unwanted comments, online messages, or boundary-pushing behaviour that’s brushed off as normal.

You’ll learn:

• What’s going on in your daughter’s nervous system when she feels unsafe or disrespected
• Why she might laugh it off, stay silent, or shut down — and why that’s not weakness
• How to support her in regulating her body before expecting her to speak up
• Simple, science-backed tools to help her respond with confidence

Plus, I’ll walk you through one powerful 4-minute practice that helps build connection without needing a heavy “talk.”

This one might bring up emotion — anger, guilt, even old memories — but it’s too important to avoid. Let’s start changing the story for our girls.

If this episode helped you to feel a little more seen, understood and less alone, I'd love to welcome you into WTF - What's The Feeling - don't you know? A supportive community where mums make sense of what's really going on with their daughters, together.
