What Is Your Daughter Really Learning From You?
Manage episode 486714117 series 2980066
What if your daughter’s biggest obstacle is the message she gets from you?
Kate Mason welcomes back Dr. Jo-Ann Finkelstein—clinical psychologist and author of Sexism and Sensibility—for a rich and thought-provoking conversation about how subtle gender biases shape our daughters’ self-worth, voice, and potential.
They dig into the unconscious ways parents reinforce appearance-based validation, the lifelong impact of being interrupted, and how sports, education, and even praise style shape a girl’s sense of entitlement and ambition.
They challenge us to unlearn generational scripts and replace them with empowering tools that foster resilience, confidence, and equality in our girls.
