Hi I'm Natalie - founder of GirlBE and Raising Strong Daughters
Statistics show between the ages of 8-14, girls’ confidence levels fall between 30 percent.
Only 27.1% of leaders or managers worldwide are women.
In an era of #Metoo, #EqualPay, #Girlscount, (and now the effects of the global pandemic, and the rise in girls mental health issues!).
If we are going to see our girls flourish, I believe we should do all we can to show girls their worth and empower them towards greatness.
Hi,
Before you move on, Are you looking for more ways to support your girl?
I'm on a mission to help those of us raising girls have all the information and resources we need to raise the next generation of strong women.
