In this empowering episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Natalie tackle a timely challenge every parent of a daughter faces: how to help her resist the pull of groupthink and peer pressure by developing strong critical thinking skills and asking thoughtful questions.
From personal stories of youthful mistakes to deep reflections on social media’s role in pushing conformity, Rachael and Natalie explore why it’s so natural—and yet so risky—for girls to follow the crowd without questioning. They unpack the cultural tension of our age, where fierce individualism paradoxically blends into relentless collectivism, especially on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
Featuring a powerful Raising Godly Girls Minute with American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay on the dangers of groupthink culture, this episode equips you with practical, faith-centered tools to empower your daughter to “pump the brakes” in tough moments. Learn three key questions your girl can ask herself to stand strong in her faith and identity: Does this honor God? Does this honor others? Does this honor who God created me to be? These simple but profound questions help build spiritual discernment and courage to resist peer pressure.
You’ll also discover how American Heritage Girls programs like the Big Sister-Little Sister and FREE to Grow Patch Programs, along with resources like Axis.org’s Culture Translator, provide a safe and Spirit-filled environment for girls to grow in faith and wisdom, even amid cultural noise.
Scripture mentioned in this episode:
Colossians 3:12
1 Peter 4:8
Matthew 6:33
Tune in to hear how you can create intentional conversations with your daughter, pray with purpose, and raise her to be a confident Christ-follower who thoughtfully navigates the pressures of today’s culture.
