Girls Empowerment Summit
Tuesday November 4th from 9am-12pm
Jenkintown, PA & Wellesley, MA
November 4th is Election Day and your kiddo is most likely off from school. We're hoping they want to spend the morning with us! If so, be sure to register for this amazing opportunity before space fills up!
Unleash her power! Join us for an inspiring Girls Empowerment Summit where girls ages 4-15 will discover their voice, build unshakable confidence, and explore their full potential. Led by a compassionate team of child and teen therapists, this empowering experience will focus on exploring a healthy body image, goal setting, and finding beauty within with fun, hands-on activities and motivational sessions. Each participant will receive a goody bag and resources to bring home!
Workshop #1: Beyond The Mirror: Appreciating our Bodies’ Incredible Power
It’s so important to celebrate that bodies come in all shapes and sizes! Instead of focusing on appearance, girls will identify how their bodies help them create art, comfort friends, play instruments, write stories, embrace loved ones, and so much more. Participants will share ways that their bodies assist them in everyday tasks and highlight different physical abilities they're grateful for. They will then have a polaroid picture taken of them as a reminder of their strong, confident, and unique build to decorate however they like. Girls will take home their decorated polaroid picture frames as visual reminders to value their bodies for their remarkable functions and capabilities, fostering a healthier relationship with their physical selves based on gratitude and functionality rather than appearance.
Workshop #2: The Beauty of Being You with veri cheri
We are excited to have veri cheri join us for an exciting workshop exploring the concept of beauty and discovering how it shows up in confidence, kindness, and individuality. In this workshop, girls will learn the CHERI framework (Confidence, Heart, Empowerment, Radiance, Individuality) and how each can be used as a tool to build authenticity. Finally, we will create a personal keepsake as a reminder that differences are strengths and to let your true "shade" shine proudly.
Workshop #3: Vision your Future: Creating your Personal Dream Board
In this empowering activity, participants will create personalized vision boards that illustrate their dreams, goals, and aspirations for their futures. Each girl will explore stacks of magazines, cutting out images, words, and phrases that resonate with who they want to become and what they hope to achieve. As they arrange their clippings on poster boards, they'll reflect on their values, interests, and ambitions across different life areas—from career aspirations and personal qualities to hobbies and relationships. Through guided discussion, girls will learn how visualizing their goals makes them feel more attainable and how regularly seeing these images can motivate them to take small steps toward their dreams. This creative process encourages self-discovery and intentional thinking about their futures, helping young girls recognize that they have the power to shape their own paths. Participants will take home their vision boards as daily reminders of their potential and the exciting possibilities that await them..
