Description
Eliza Reynolds is a best-selling author, speaker, and professional big sibling who keeps it real. She’s spent the last 15 years creating space for preteen and teen girls to be their authentic selves, and now offers online mentorship programs teaching emotional intelligence, embodiment, body literacy, and more for big-hearted preteen and teen girls who are tired of faking it at Badass Girls.
I have a number of friends who have teen girls. I’m learning a lot about this world and - WOW - there is a lot to learn. I’m so grateful to Eliza for her generous work. And I’m very inspired to work on my own inner teen work. I didn’t realize that I had some stuff to heal until Eliza pointed it out. I hope you’ll join me in this venture, as I think it could be critical to our parenting.
Listen in to hear Eliza
The importance of doing our own inner teen work in order to support teens in our lives
The importance of socializing girls to trust themselves
Why we need to talk about the most intense parts of being a teen openly rather than shying away from it - like we probably did back when we were teens
How we can heal our own inner teen in order to help the teens in our lives
How to self regulate as a mom so you can respond rather than react in hard moments of parenting
The steps of moving from dependence to interdependence to independence in parenting
The 3 S’s of toxic mean girl culture
How toxic mean girl culture is still alive and well among grown women - and why it exists beyond the teen years
Why #girlpower is a weary anthem that we need to replace with actual action steps to dismantle systems of oppression and build actual self trust
Why performative confidence is dangerous and damaging
3 ways for any mom to show up for preteen and teen girls in your family and community
