Your daughter’s emotions can feel big (and sometimes overwhelming!) for both of you.
But what if, instead of trying to calm her down right away, you could help her ride those emotions like a wave…and come out calmer, more confident, and more connected on the other side?
In today’s episode, I’m sharing my favorite “wave analogy” from our girls’ confidence workshops and my own parenting journey. You’ll walk away with 3 simple steps to help your daughter feel her feelings in healthy ways - a skill that will help her for the rest of her life.
We’ll cover:
- The ocean wave analogy that clicks instantly for kids and teens.
- How to name and normalize emotions so your daughter feels safe to share.
- Practical ways to “ride the wave” without shutting down or exploding.
- How to guide her in a way that empowers her to process all her feelings.
Whether your daughter is 8 or 16, these tools can help her manage big emotions and strengthen your relationship in the process.
You've got this!
