Does your daughter ever roll her eyes or act like she doesn’t want you around? As moms, we often think our girls don’t need as much affection as they grow, but the truth is...they actually need it more!

In this episode, I’ll share why hugging your daughter is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to validate her feelings, build a stronger connection, and boost her self-esteem. You’ll learn:

- The surprising scientific benefits of hugging.

- How to incorporate more hugs into your daily life. 

- Other simple ways to validate your daughter when she resists physical affection.
