Chelsey and Denise discuss how teenage girls are misunderstood, how they can gain self trust, permissioning and why confidence and BIGNESS are good things.

Chelsey Goodan is a USA Today bestselling author, international speaker, and thought leader on women and girls' empowerment. In her work, Goodan reveals the universal truths she learned from a teenage girl’s struggle with self-doubt, authenticity, confidence, leadership, connection, and power. Goodan's bestselling book, UNDERESTIMATED: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls, was named “Best Nonfiction” by Amazon’s Editorial Director and garnered acclaim from Oprah’s Book Club, Oprah Daily, The Today Show, Hello Sunshine, NBC News, TIME Magazine, and public figures like Academy Award-winning actress Laura Dern. Goodan has emerged as a leading voice for reshaping school, home, and work environments to empower women and girls’ voices. She conducts women & girls’ empowerment workshops, and in 2024, she partnered with Reese Witherspoon's company Hello Sunshine and the brand Invisalign to create and lead their Empowerment Day for girls. As a keynote speaker, Goodan helps women heal their inner teenage girl and coaches parents on how to better understand and connect with their daughter. On worldwide stages, Goodan teaches communication strategies that create emotional and psychological safety.

With a clear focus on social impact, Goodan supports nonprofits advocating for gender justice. Volunteering her time as the Mentorship Director of the nonprofit DemocraShe, Chelsey supports and guides girls from underrepresented communities into leadership positions. She also serves on the board of A Call to Men, a gender-based violence prevention nonprofit that educates men and boys on healthy masculinity.
