In the latest episode of The Parenting Couch podcast, Rachel and Sarah talk with Katie Parker from Bloomfully... who has created an incredible online program for tween girls called 'I Believe In Me'. Katie opens up about her passion for helping girls to bloom, and her insights for how parents can support their daughters.

Tween girls have a lot to deal with... friendship issues, changing bodies, social media, school pressures and more. In recent years, there's been a huge increase in anxiety and depression from this age group, and as parents we want to be able to do whatever we can to support them through tough times.

In this episode of The Parenting Couch podcast, Katie Parker from Bloomfully shares her advice for some of the big situations that your daughter might experience:

• Dealing with bullies and exclusion: When friends are mean and drama starts - what is the best way to handle it?
• Mental health: What can we do to support our child's mental health, particularly if they are suffering from anxiety or depression?
• Identity: Why girls should strive to find their own passions and direction, and not be a follower.
• Hard times: How you can help your daughter through failures, disappointments and hard emotions ?
• Negative self-talk: How can tweens stop the negative self-talk and stop the comparison game?
• Building Confidence: How you can build lasting confidence in your tween daughter, to help her now and in the future?
• Family routines: Why family routines are important... even with older children!
