The Question (& Answer) Behind Every Puberty Conversation | Ep. 69

What if the biggest questions our daughters ask during puberty aren’t actually about puberty at all?After nearly 70 episodes talking about periods, hormones, body literacy, confidence, friendships, and mother-daughter connection, I’ve realized something that I can no longer keep in the background.Every conversation about puberty eventually leads to the same place.Because puberty isn’t just about changing bodies—it’s about forming identity.It’s about discovering who she is, whose she is, and whose voice she’ll believe when the world gets loud.In today’s episode, I’m sharing the heart behind this podcast, why you’ve probably sensed a shift over the last few episodes, and why I believe Jesus isn’t just part of the puberty conversation—He’s the foundation beneath every single one of them.This isn’t a new direction.It’s bringing the foundation to the forefront.Here’s the power in today’s episode:Why puberty is one of the most spiritually formative seasons in your daughter’s life.The deeper question Christian moms are really asking when they ask about confidence, hormones, friendships, and communication.How confidence changes when it’s rooted in identity in Christ instead of achievements or the opinions of others.Why body literacy becomes so much more meaningful when we understand the Creator behind our incredible design.The key to helping your daughter build healthy relationships without making other people the source of her identity.A vulnerable realization I’ve had about my own girls—and why, as much as I want them to come to me, I want them to go to the Lord first.What I really mean every time I say, “You are an empowered mom raising an empowered girl.”Why practical parenting strategies matter—but will always fall short if they aren’t built on the unchanging foundation of God’s Truth.How the parable of the wise and foolish builders (Matthew 7) completely changed the way I think about parenting through puberty.The simple reflection questions I’m asking myself as a mom—and inviting you to ask yourself too.If you’ve ever wondered how to disciple your daughter through puberty, if you’ve been trying to balance practical parenting with biblical truth, or if you’ve felt the weight of wanting to “get it right” during these incredibly formative years, then listen in to today’s episode. This conversation is the foundation beneath every other conversation we’ll have from here on out.EMPOWERED RESOURCES➡️ Free Guide: 4 Biblical Parenting Shifts to Help You Confidently Navigate Puberty with Your Daughter | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ Literally Magazine | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!*Apply the code ADRIANE10 to get 10% off her yearly subscription!CONNECT WITH ADRIANE➡️ Instagram | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empoweredpubertypodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@empowered_womb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ Website | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EmpoweredWomb.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ Email | [email protected] WITH THE SALTY EXPERIENCE➡️ Website | ⁠⁠TheSaltyExperience.org⁠⁠➡️ Instagram | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@the_salty_experience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ TSE Survey | ⁠⁠For Moms⁠⁠➡️ TSE Survey | ⁠⁠For Girls⁠⁠HOW TO MAKE AN IMPACT:​Follow/Subscribe to the podcast on your favorite podcast player​Rate the podcast​Review the podcast​Share this podcast episode with a friend!
