S7 E18: Puberty's Superpower: Supporting Girls Through Their Changing Years with Kimberly Grustas

Imperfect Mommying: Better Parenting through Self-Healing with Alysia Lyons

In this episode, we dive deep into the world of skincare, hormones, and the challenges of navigating puberty for young girls. Kimberly shares her journey from being a fitness enthusiast to discovering the importance of clean, natural products for children, after dealing with her own daughters' health issues. She explains why we, as parents, need to be mindful of the products we let our kids use, especially during those critical growth years.

We also talk about the pressure young girls face with social media and influencers promoting products that may not be suitable for their skin or their emotional development. With puberty being such a transformative time, Kimberly offers some valuable insight into how we can better support our daughters—emotionally and physically—during these years.

If you’ve ever wondered about the right approach to skincare for your tween or teen, or if you’re navigating the emotional rollercoaster of raising a daughter during puberty, this episode is a must-listen!

Join us as we explore how to approach this phase of life with more understanding, empathy, and the right tools to empower our daughters.

Brand Visionary Kimberly Grustas started Good For You Girls to keep girls away from toxic chemicals during puberty. With over 15 years in the natural product and nutrition industries, Kim had advanced knowledge of the dangers of even trace levels of estrogenic chemicals during the delicate transformation from girlhood to adult. Kim’s two daughters had asthma and allergies and when they were entering puberty, she was appalled at the ingredients in products marketed to young girls. The lack of safe, effective and age-appropriate products combined with her knowledge about the lowering age of puberty was all she needed to launch this transformative brand to help other moms keep their daughters safe. Kim has been called the O.G. of tween skincare and it’s not hard to see why. Good For You Girls was the first line of clean skincare dedicated to girls in the US and is a thought leader in helping moms connect to their daughters during these precious years.
