Raising Resilient Girls
 
An HRP Mamas Educational Event with Simone Marean,
Executive Director and Co-Founder of Girls Leadership
 
 

Workshop:

Please join us for an evening with Simone Marean, Executive Director and Co-Founder of the internationally recognized non-profit organization Girls Leadership. Simone will share how to help girls practice assertive self-expression, emotional intelligence and healthy relationships, preparing them for a life of personal and societal leadership. Her engaging presentation will cover the development of girl dynamics from preschool through high school.

On the surface, girls are thriving. They are outpacing boys in test scores, college admissions and athletic achievements. But beneath the surface, experts are seeing a rise in female aggression and depression. Girls who appear to “have it all” are being pushed to the brink to maintain their “perfect girl” image. By attempting to excel in all arenas, “supergirls” develop an inability to take risks, practice authenticity and make mistakes. Audience members will learn concrete steps to awaken girls to the power of their authentic selves.
 
The workshop will cover:

  • How and why girls are aggressive with one another
  • The “Good Girl” phenomenon
  • What girls need to avoid victimization
  • The power of emotional intelligence
  • The importance of mistakes
  • The limitations of blame
  • Seeing conflict as an opportunity for change
