Solving For Joy

Today’s conversation is about teenage girls, social media, anxiety, perfectionism, emotional resilience, and protecting joy in a culture of burnout and comparison.

What happens when girls begin losing connection to themselves younger and younger while navigating pressure, performance, comparison, and constant digital noise?

In this episode, I’m joined by Jamie Shannon, certified life coach and founder of Girl Reimagined, a coaching program supporting teenage girls and families navigating anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and emotional overwhelm.

We talk about:
 • How social media impacts girls’ confidence, identity, and emotional well-being
 • Why many adult women are still learning the skills girls need most today
 • How coaching can help girls build resilience, boundaries, and self-trust before crisis
 • Jamie’s concept of a “happy prescription” and helping girls reconnect with joy
 • What parents can do to better support girls in a world of comparison and overstimulation

This conversation is about more than raising daughters. It is about helping the next generation stay connected to themselves while many adults are still finding their way back there too.

If you’ve been thinking about the girls in your life, navigating burnout or perfectionism yourself, or longing for more connection and joy, this episode is for you.
