Teenage girls have a message for their parents and the rest of the world; we're smarter than you think we are. Chelsey Goodan tutors girls in their teens and she's on a mission to deliver that message from her students to the rest of the world. She says too often teenage girls feel dismissed as dramatic, mean or shallow.
After 16 years of listening to their concerns about beauty, shame, people-pleasing and friends, Goodan offers advice for parents and caregivers about what teenage girls can teach us about authenticity and what they truly need to thrive in a complicated world.
Her new book is called, UNDERESTIMATED: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls.
