Why She Just Can’t Calm Down…
from Teen Whisperer | Parenting Teen Girls · host Rach Friedli
Send us Fan Mail Feeling like your home has turned into an emotional battlefield? This one’s for you. In this episode, we’re diving into why your daughter can’t just “calm down” when emotions run high. From hormones and emotional flooding to the teenage brain still under construction, you’ll hear why logic often fails mid-meltdown and what’s really driving those big reactions. I share real-life stories, eye-opening insights from my work with mums and girls, and gritty, in-the-moment tools you can use today to help her (and you) find calm, connection, and understanding without the guilt or power struggles. Because it’s not about “bad behaviour”, it’s about her physiology, her developing brain, and how you can meet her where she is. 🎧 Grab your mug, hit play, and let’s make sense of the chaos together. If you’re listening to this thinking, “that’s me,” I’ve got something for you. It’s called Connect the Dots. It’s a really simple guide to help you slow down, look at what you’re actually seeing, and then zoom out and consider what else might be going on for your daughter. You can grab it for free here.
