About this listen

 Emotions can feel overwhelming—both hers and yours. So how do you raise a Godly girl who’s emotionally wise, not just reactive? In this episode, hosts Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden explore how emotional intelligence (EQ) can shape your daughter’s spiritual maturity—and your parenting too. You’ll hear practical ways to help her name her feelings, respond with grace, and grow in wisdom from a Biblical Worldview. Discover how Jesus modeled empathy and self-control, why EQ is more than a buzzword, and how God uses emotions to shape both moms and daughters into His likeness. Plus, hear this week’s Raising Godly Girls Minute with American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay as she reminds us that emotions aren’t flaws—they’re God-designed tools for growth. Scripture References in This Episode: Proverbs 15:1 – “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” Galatians 5:22-23 – The fruit of the Spirit, including self-control and gentleness Ecclesiastes 3:4 – “A time to weep and a time to laugh…” James 1:19-20 – “Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry…” Ephesians 4:26 – “In your anger do not sin…” John 11:35 – “Jesus wept.” (A powerful example of Christ’s emotional expression) 2 Timothy 1:7 – “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” Whether you’re navigating a meltdown or simply want to parent with more patience and purpose, this episode will equip you with Biblical insight and practical tools to grow both your daughter’s emotional intelligence—and your own.
