Check out Moorea Friedman... a 16-year-old who is just wise beyond her years. If you’ve ever thought, 'what was I doing at 16?' brace yourselves, because if you're anything like me, you're answer might not sound anything like Mooreas.

We dive right into what it’s like growing up today, with the unique pressures of social media and all the intense comparison that comes with it. She opens up about dealing with an eating disorder, anxiety, and depression, all while juggling high school and a podcast of her own. Her show, Balancing Act: Life and Struggles of a Teenage Girl, is about creating a real, unfiltered space for teens dealing with mental health, and she’s bringing such a mature perspective to the table. I love how she talks about perfectionism and the need to be 'enough' in a world that’s constantly telling you otherwise. It’s inspiring, raw, and refreshingly honest.

Mariah shares stories about her own journey and how she’s learning to navigate all the pressures around her. There’s something so relatable in her words - it reminds me of my own journey through boxing, chasing perfection, and learning to be okay with imperfection. We talk about those tricky moments of self-reflection, identity, and how to redefine resilience when life throws you a punch (or a few). This conversation isn’t just for the younger crowd; it’s a powerful reminder to us all that being vulnerable and embracing our struggles is where real strength comes from.

So if you’re ready for a dose of teenage wisdom that might just make you rethink a few things, this episode is for you.
