Tips to motivate DD13?

DD is in Year 8. When she started Year 7, she threw herself into school, joining sports teams and generally being interested in doing well academically. This was how she was all through primary. Things have inevitably changed but now she does nothing. All of her extra curricular activities in and out of school have been dropped one by one at her request (and despite encouragement to continue). She does the bare minimum to get by at school. She seems happy enough but complains she's bored from time to time 🤷‍♀️. Is it just a phase of adolescence or should I be trying different tactics to motivate her to do something?
