If you want your daughter to learn new metrics for self-worth, I’m offering my newest course called “A Girl’s Worth”. Girls need to learn how to shift their focus to define their self-worth by their confidence, bravery and risk taking, authenticity, boundary setting…

Then, I felt betrayed by her body changes, as if she doesn’t have the right to be any shape and size she chooses. But I…

Does your daughter struggle to love her body? Is she growing more and more uncomfortable with what she looks like? Does she compare her body to her peers and feel she is “too fat”, “too short”, or “too ugly”? Has she ever told you she wants to go on a DIET?
