Season 5 Episode 7
Being a girl in today’s world can be highly empowering, but at the same time it often means walking through a cultural minefield of social media messaging, toxic perfectionism, and unachievable bodily ideals, all before you turn 13. Journalist Kate Rope‘s new book, Strong As A Girl, looks at the factors that can offset these forces, starting with self-compassion. Our discussion covers the emotional challenges faced by both parents and daughters, how fear impacts parenting decisions, and why it’s so important for girls to express their interests and emotions.
