As parents, we have the power to lay a foundation of confidence, strength and perspective for our children- But where do we start?
On Today's episode of A Higher Branch, Sam Makhoul is joined by a passionate champion for girls and women and best-selling author Kasey Edwards.
Kasey educates us on raising girls who are confident in a world that tells them they are flawed and explains how generations of parenting methods have impacted girls' self-esteem today.
The pair also discuss:
- The cycle of self-doubt in girls
- Educating girls on body autonomy
- The power play affecting young girls today
- Why we need to cut back on the 'Beauty' comments; and
- Creating a good relationship between food, exercise and girls!
