Donna Jackson Nakazawa is hanging out with us to discuss how we can help girls thrive in an era of increased anxiety and depression. 

Today’s conversation is more important than ever because in case you didn’t know, girls are more prone to depression and anxiety than ever before and Donna’s here to help you understand the science of why this is. 

Donna is an award-winning science journalist, author, and internationally-recognized speaker whose work explores the intersection of neuroscience, immunology, and human emotion. Her mission is to translate emerging science in ways that help those with chronic conditions find healing.

We're talking about..

- Why girl's mental health is worsening

- How chronic stress impacts girl's brains differently than boys

- Why it’s important to know the science

- How losing the in-between years negatively impacts girl's mental health

- How social media impacts adolescent girl's mental health

- The role puberty plays in a girl's mental health

- Why we’re seeing a sharp rise in self-harming behaviors in young girls

- Why you need to develop a safe and stable relationship with your daughter

- What you can do to help improve your daughter's mental health

- Why you need to be regulated if you hope to help regulate your daughter

If you know someone who'd benefit from hearing this conversation, please share it with them. 🥰

Also, if you haven't done so already, be sure to follow the podcast. I'm adding a bunch of bonus minisodes to the feed and I don't want you to miss them.
