Episode Synopsis

Help the young women in your life to thrive from Founder and CEO of Flourish Girl, Mandy Dante. In this conversation, Mandy and Mark talk about the many challenges teenage girls face in today's complex world: body image issues, anxiety, stress, and fitting in. Mandy also shares what we can do to help young girls feel connected to their social groups and communities so that young women feel seen and heard.
In this episode, you'll learn about:

How important it is to provide teenage girls and young women with safe spaces to feel comfortable talking openly and authentically.
Issues young women face including stress, anxiety and mental health issues.
How to connect with and empower the teenage girl in your life.

Our favourite quotable moment:
“It’s so important that we really do empower the young women in our lives because one thing I’ve noticed, after working with nearly 7,000 teenage girls is, it’s like we’ve become masters with suppressing what we’re actually feeling; or just feeling like we need to have it all together.” – Mandy Dante (17:34)
