About this listen

In this episode of The Girl Mom Life with Casey Gray, we’re reframing one of the biggest fears holding girls (and moms) back: mistakes. From missed answers and awkward moments to emotional reactions and wrong choices, mistakes can feel heavy—for both you and your daughter. But what if mistakes aren’t setbacks at all? In this episode, Casey shares how perfectionism quietly keeps girls stuck, why the fear of getting it wrong can stop growth, and how shifting the way we talk about mistakes can turn them into momentum instead of shame.

You’ll learn why your response to your own mistakes matters more than you think, how to model self-compassion in real life, and practical ways to help your daughter see failure as feedback—not proof that she’s not enough. With simple language shifts, curiosity-based questions, and everyday tools you can use right away, this episode will help you raise a confident, resilient daughter who isn’t afraid to try again. If you’re ready to create a home where learning is safer than perfection, this conversation is for you.

Being a mom is one of the absolute best AND hardest jobs on the planet. Before you get the job, there are all these ideas about what it's like, what you want to do. But when reality hits, it's not at all what you had in mind. And there's no manual for what to do.

That's where I come in. My goal is to share some of my experiences, even some tips and tools, that will help you navigate the complex job of Mom.
