What does it mean to be beautiful in a culture that constantly shifts the standard? How can moms raise daughters to be confident in who God made them to be—without getting caught up in the world’s obsession with image and appearance? In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Melissa open up about their own girlhood experiences with beauty standards shaped by pop culture, from magazine quizzes to celebrity beauty icons. Together, they explore how those early messages still linger today—and how our daughters now face even greater pressure in the age of social media.

With honesty, humor, and heartfelt faith, Rachael and Melissa reflect on the growing trend of “Get Ready With Me” videos that invite girls as young as eight to model their beauty routines for an online audience. Drawing wisdom from American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay’s Raising Godly Girls Minute, they confront how easily young girls begin to equate their worth with how they look, rather than who they are in Christ. Through the lens of Romans 12:2, they offer a compelling call to raise girls who are not conformed to the patterns of this world, but who are transformed by the renewing of their minds—anchored in Biblical truth and Godly confidence.

Listeners will be invited into a grace-filled, practical conversation about where beauty and faith intersect. From vulnerable anecdotes about personal image struggles to actionable conversation starters for moms and daughters, this episode provides a roadmap for shaping a Christ-centered understanding of beauty. You'll hear how small moments—like bedtime chats or quiet prayers—can become holy ground for heart-deep conversations, and how even something as simple as an AHG badge can become a meaningful tool for discipleship.

If you’ve ever wondered how to help your girl navigate a world obsessed with filters, fashion, and false standards, this episode will encourage you to pause, pray, and speak truth into her heart. Join us as we explore how to raise girls who know their worth, not by how the world sees them, but by the eyes of a loving God who calls them fearfully and wonderfully made.
