Recognizing Girls’ Mental Health Signals

In today’s culture of distraction, digital overload, and constant busyness, it’s easy to miss the warning signs that a girl’s mental health may be suffering. This week on the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Melissa and Natalie take a thoughtful, faith-filled look at the subtle—and not-so-subtle—signals girls send when they’re hurting mentally and emotionally. 

With grace, honesty, and Scripture-based encouragement, this episode equips parents to tune in to their daughter’s deeper needs, even when everything on the surface looks “fine.” From changes in sleep or social habits to sudden shifts in mood or isolation, the signs can be easy to miss—but this episode helps shine a light. Melissa and Natalie also speak candidly about how Christian parents can respond in love, not with fear or silence, but with presence, gentleness, and the pursuit modeled by Christ Himself. 

You’ll also hear from AHG Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay in a special Raising Godly Girls Minute, addressing the heart behind a girl’s angry outburst—and how it might just be a hidden plea for someone to care. Plus, practical tools to evaluate family dynamics, tech habits, and personal wellness markers in your home. 

This is a sacred conversation for any mom raising a girl in today’s world. Most importantly, it’s filled with Biblical truth and hope—reminding listeners that God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and His Spirit empowers us to overflow with peace and joy (Romans 15:13). 

If you’re navigating concerns about your daughter’s emotional or mental well-being, or just want to be better prepared to support her as she grows, don’t miss this vital episode.
