The 5 Truths I’m Teaching My Daughter (That I Had to Learn the Hard Way)


Listen Later

This one’s for every woman who didn’t get the guidance she needed growing up—and every mother who’s trying to do better.

In this bold and deeply personal episode, Hilary Silver pulls back the curtain on the five lessons she’s deliberately teaching her kids, especially her daughter. These aren’t fluffy Pinterest quotes—these are the things that took Hilary decades to learn the hard way. Now she’s handing them down with intention, clarity, and zero apology.

She’s teaching her daughter to know who she is. To trust herself without second-guessing. To stop asking for permission and start asking for what she needs. To see herself clearly, speak up boldly, and never—ever—abandon herself to make others comfortable.

 

Episode Highlights:

  • The truth about self-trust (and why it matters more than approval)
  • What it looks like to be your own best advocate
  • How to stop outsourcing your happiness
  • Why being self-centered is the most responsible thing you can do
  • How to model the kind of woman you hope your daughter becomes
