Ep. 255 — Teaching Your Daughter That It’s Not About Her

---

Season 2 Episode 255

---

From toddler tantrums to teen drama, it’s easy to spot the signs of self-focus in our daughters—but it’s harder to correct that trajectory in a culture that rewards self-obsession. This episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast gently but boldly tackles the uncomfortable topic of selfishness and entitlement, equipping moms with Biblical tools to shepherd their daughters into a Christ-centered life of humility and service. 

Co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose offer heartfelt insight, Scripture-based truth, and real-life reflection on how selfish habits form—and how to break them with grace. From the sassy toddler mimicking grown-up behavior to the teen seeking praise and power, this conversation walks alongside moms who want to train up daughters who reflect Christ, not the culture. 

You’ll also hear from American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay in a timely Raising Godly Girls Minute, pointing parents to Proverbs and practical ways to help girls become refreshers of others rather than rulers of their own tiny kingdoms. If you’ve ever struggled to set boundaries, discipline with love, or navigate your girl’s “attitude,” this episode will meet you right where you are—and call you higher in your parenting. 

In this episode, you’ll discover: 

• Why early entitlement, if left unchecked, leads to lasting relational damage 

• How to guide your girl from “what I want” to “what others need” using empathy and training 

• Biblical wisdom from Philippians 2 and James 3:16 that redefines confidence as Christlike humility 

• Practical parenting phrases and questions to use when disciplining or redirecting selfish behavior
