In this complimentary Moms’ Connection seminar at Wildflower House, Fran Hendrick, PCC, author of Raising Joyful Rebels: A Guide for Moms, will share the fundamentals of how to confidently spot the opportunities in the small moments of everyday life to inspire girls to be real, be strong, and be happy.
The statistics on depression and self-harm in girls and women today in this country demand our attention. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, a whopping 17.3% of girls ages 12-17 have experienced a major depressive episode, along with 8.2% of adult women. It has even been estimated that girls’ self-esteem, their greatest protection against depression, peaks (yes, peaks) before they are ten years old!
And what makes this all the more unacceptable is that it is largely preventable! We have the knowledge to raise girls to feel whole, adequate, and joyful so they experience the world confidently and in bright colors. The knowledge exists to protect our girls from depression, from lifelong battles against feeling not good enough, from desperation – in short, to prevent rivers of tears and needless pain.
But for parents to actually be able to implement that knowledge in the small moments that make up everyday life with children requires a clear approach, intentional action — and a strong dose of self-reflection, because it can be scary. With that investment, our girls can be spared the lifetime of depression and anxiety that so many women experience. They can joyfully become exactly who they’re meant to be.
