About this listen

What should you do if your family keeps bringing home pizza, chips, and soda while you’re trying to eat healthier?

In this episode, Dr. Jenny Gourgari shares 10 real-life strategies that teens can use to stay on track—even if their family isn’t on the same page (yet).

✅ How to start a supportive family conversation
✅ Grocery shopping swaps that work
✅ How to create a healthy snack station just for you
✅ Fun ways to get siblings involved

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!
