About this listen

In this episode, I’m sharing 15 powerful ways you can support your teen’s health journey—without sounding like you're nagging them. Every time you remind them to eat better or get moving and they roll their eyes... I get it! It's frustrating when you're trying to help but it feels like you're being tuned out.

I’ll walk you through small communication shifts that can lead to big results, like:

  • What to say instead of “Why didn’t you exercise today?”
  • How to time your advice so they’ll actually listen
  • 75 real-life examples you can use today!

I’m Dr. Jenny Gourgari—pediatric endocrinologist, certified in obesity medicine and a health coach.
After helping hundreds of teens struggling with their weight and hormones, I’ve created a whole new path by doing what most programs miss: balance puberty hormones naturally and create habits that actually last.

Here's what makes this different:
✅ No dieting. No calorie counting. No shame.
✅ No more food fights between parents and teens.
✅ No weight obsession—just healthy habits
✅ Real science behind how puberty hormones affect weight
✅ A safe, supportive approach that prevents eating disorders

Because when teens understand their hormones and get the right support, they don’t just lose weight—they gain strength, energy, confidence, and freedom!
