10 for Teens + Tweens

I’m thrilled to share my interview with Jen Swetzoff and Keeley McNamara, the editors of Anyway Magazine!

Jen and Keeley share how they created this magazine especially for tweens and teens, featuring articles by both experts and kids about teen culture, style, relationships, community, creativity, health, and wellbeing. Their greatest hope is that Anyway Magazine can help kids feel normal and understood as they grow up.

In case it’s hard to remember or believe sometimes, I wanted to remind you: You Are Still Enough.

Every day you get a barrage of negative messages from external sources that say, "You are NOT enough." In this episode, I want to help you grow a strong sense of self so you can withstand these messages and keep believing that You Are Still Enough.
. . .
Nearly three and a half years ago I launched this podcast, and the very first message I shared with you was You Are Enough. That episode 001 just reached an incredible milestone, thanks to you girls. More than 100,000 times, a girl has heard that message, You Are Enough. And that’s amazing.

I’ve received a lot of feedback on that episode, and I can tell that girls really need to hear this message especially. So I’m excited to tell you, I’m now speaking to youth groups and at middle and high schools to keep spreading this message: You Are Enough.

I’ll be exploring relationship red flags in this episode, and while this topic is sensitive and can get heavy, I think it’s really important to talk about so you girls can recognize the signs and get help sooner.

I’m excited to share my interview with Chelsey Goodan, author of this book, “Underestimated: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls.”

One quick note: this book was written about teen girls and is geared toward them and their parents. While our interview doesn’t discuss anything sensitive in detail, tween listeners should keep that in mind.

Chelsey's book shares teen girls' collective wisdom on topics like perfectionism, sexuality, people pleasing, identity, friends, self-doubt, the media, beauty, shame, and power. It is a much-needed resource for today's parents and teen girls.

You know I’m a hype girl for you girls. Along with that, I will also fiercely defend you. There’s been a lot of noise lately about tween and teen girls’ fixations. I’ve seen posts, articles, and videos criticizing and even mocking girls for being curious about, interested in, and even obsessed with certain things. And I’m not okay with it. So I’m sticking up for you.
