Welcome back to Pep Talk Friday! In this episode of Raising Confident Girls, Melissa Jones talks about something every parent needs to hear: emotional connection matters so much more than perfection. When our daughters feel overwhelmed, they’re not looking for the perfect response—they just need us to be warm, steady, and there.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why staying calm and connected matters more than saying all the “right” things
• How your simple, steady presence can help your daughter move through big feelings
• Easy ways to ground yourself so you can be the support your daughter needs
• How girls feel comforted when we drop the pressure to be perfect
• What it really looks like to be a warm, safe place during tough moments

This episode is a sweet reminder that your daughter doesn’t need a flawless parent—they just need you. Your presence is what helps them feel safe, supported, and understood, even when emotions get big.

If you know a parent who could use a little encouragement today, share this episode with them. We’re all learning as we go—and together, we can raise daughters who feel truly seen and secure.
