After learning how to meditate in high school in a course on mindfulness, at the Center for Mindfulness, based on the ground breaking work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, something shifted in the way she related to her body, mind and spirit. It sparked something. She’d always prayed, even as a little kid. It wasn’t anything forced. She never much liked church but praying, that she loved. It brought her great comfort, clarity and kept her busy brain occupied. She felt that with meditation, it made her feel at home. Using light & speed codes, energy healing, crystal bowls, song, intuitive coaching, and channeled messages from the Archangels, Pleiades, Fairy, Ancestral and Star Realms, she helps remove intergenerational trauma, illness, fears, and pain, aligning her clients with new levels of grace, clarity, understanding of life purpose, success and general ease. She healed herself using the method she now shares with people.

She is a graduate of Julie Ryan’s ‘Angelic Attendant Training’ and studied privately with Angelic Channel and Quantum Healer, Shelly Ayers. She holds a BA in American Studies from Wesleyan University--and studied theater, costume & makeup design, Gamelan and voice there, which is likely the most practical thing she’s ever done.

“You make me … [furious].”

How many times a day do you find yourself saying or thinking these kinds of things about your kids? Or these kinds of things about yourself:
“I should … [be folding the piles of laundry right now].”
“I have to … [drive soccer carpool, again].”



These are examples of what communication experts call dis-empowering language: negative thoughts or words we may take for granted as part of our everyday vocabulary. It’s a type of language that leave us feeling more like pawns in someone else’s game, rather than masters of our own destiny. Often when we use dis-empowering language, it’s a direct reflection of dis-empowered feelings we may have, which commonly arise under stress. Although the statements above might seem harmless, dis-empowering language can have a profound effect on the feelings and behaviors of our children and ourselves.

Did you notice a slight loss of energy or increased discomfort while reading the phrases above? The way we express ourselves – our choice of words and our tone of voice – creates energy that either gives power or takes power away.

“When we speak,” “We exercise the power of language to transform reality.”
Because of its power to influence our beliefs, dis-empowering language can undermine our parenting goals. This happens because what we focus on determines most of what we see. For example, when a parent says to a child, “You’re always uncooperative,” parent and child log the comments as “data.” With repetition, this cycle of behavior and response reinforces in our mind and the child’s the belief that she’s uncooperative, although that is far from our goal.

Join me and my guest Ciara Sullivan on an enlightening conversation on the power of language. Ciara has an educational background in Applied Psychology with a focus on the fields of Cognitive Behavioral and Positive Psychology, as well as earning certifications in Clinical Hypnotherapy (C.Ht) and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).

Liz is the CEO and co-founder of Bleuet, apparel designed to give girls’ the freedom and confidence to do what they love. Born of a mom and daughter’s frustration while shopping for camisoles and bras, Liz decided along with her husband, Bill, to launch a line of quality, age-appropriate and comfortable camisoles, bras, undershirts and underwear – all designed with a young, growing girl’s body in mind.

Bleuet , which means a blooming cornflower in French, is a fun, playful brand created specifically for girls ages 7 to 13 as the onset of puberty begins. With their active lifestyle that often includes play, sports, freeze tag, dance, cartwheels, P.E., Bleuet undergarments are designed to be durable and provide the coverage that girls need.

To help parents and daughters navigate the ups and downs of puberty, Liz is working to provide resources and community for raising strong, confident and kind daughters. With the rate of anxiety and depression increasing in girls today, Liz believes there is more we can do to boost girls confidence and self-esteem as they become teenagers.

Bleuet’s mission is to help marginalized girls and young women gain access to education and job training resources. Soon, they will launch Bleuet Scholars, which is a program designed to equip and empower girls through scholarships programs focused on STEM and computer science programs. Bleuet seeks to empower girls and women in every aspect of their business.

Growing up means making your own decisions, and sometimes, mistakes, she told The Times.
“The point is to prepare the kid for the road, instead of preparing the road for the kid,” Lythcott-Haims said. 
Lythcott-Haims said it's difficult for snowplow parents to break the habit of being a child's fixer, always plowing away all the difficulties.
"If you’re doing it in high school, you can’t stop at college,” she said. "If you’re doing it in college, you can’t stop when it comes to the workplace. You have manufactured a role for yourself of always being there to handle things for your child, so it gets worse because your young adult is ill-equipped to manage the basic tasks of life."
Lythcott-Haims said parents eventually have to take a back seat and let their kids drive their own lives. "You can’t just arrive them at the future you want for them. They have to do the work to build the skills," she said.

Today on the podcast we are joined by Jules Grieves

Jules is a wife and mother of two small children. She is expanding as an international speaker and trainer for her company, Raising Roots LLC promoting childlike growth in the adult world to unfold more fulfilling, freeing ways to live. She would say her life was dead inside until a new life came from it. Before the birth of her son, Zayden, she only knew to operate out of five things: hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism. Living that way made her numb, emotionless. Once she held a raw human life in her hands, a feeling rushed over her like a heart-stopping memory: love. She became aware that her way of ‘living’ wasn’t living at all and stood still long enough to realize that her son and, soon after him, her daughter would hold all the answers towards rediscovering the best version of herself- her childlike self.

Having allergies can be isolating but when we remember there are thousands of ways to view ourselves as different...we can also remember we're all human we all have our own stories! It's important to teach this to young kids early on in their lives. The person next to them has a story just as they do. Asha LeRay is the founder of Food Allergy Unboxed and help families learn to thrive with food allergies. As a parent of a 10 year old daughter who lives with multiple severe food allergies, She has lived through and learned from plenty of life's obstacles. This journey has not only taught her to live with food allergies but also helped them both transform from insecure and anxious to becoming fierce advocates for themselves in all aspects of their lives. Now she wants to help others do the same! Asha believes if families can learn to plan well - eat safely - and communicate clearly, they'll be living their best lives in no time!

Beyond being a food allergy parent, Asha is an occupational therapist working in an urban inclusion school where kids of all learning abilities learn together. She is also an avid outdoors-woman and Pixar animation fan! For more information on Asha you can find her at www.foodallergyunboxed.com

You can catch De’Nicea working with women virtually or at her Holistic Reproductive Health clinic or on her podcast, Sisters of Flow. As founder of The Fertility Effect™ and The Fertile Collective™, De’Nicea inspires women seeking holistic methods to support their quest not only for period relief or positive pregnancy test, but for a more aligned and empowered whole Self.

While women have been searching all over for the answers to her questions about her period and fertility health, De’Nicea helps her see that the answers have been within her the whole time. She just needs to know how to access and interpret it.

From this new perspective, she begins to create a life FOR her instead of allowing things to happen TO her, taking a more active role in her healthcare and well-being.

De’Nicea leads women to shift their relationship with their cycle to one of Self-Guided Direction – detecting cues and listening to messages of what her Mind, Body and Spirit are saying she needs.

There are common misconceptions about menstrual cycles where girls and women are taught to accept certain symptoms as "normal" when really they're messages of health - holistically. Providers quickly prescribe birth control which can have major side effects on a growing girl's body and some stay on it for decades after. Or, parents/guardians are unfamiliar with how to help young ladies who begin menstruating, especially if they're nervous to talk about the possibility of pregnancy. Today our listeners will learn what are some of these common misconceptions about the menstrual cycle and what can be done to encourage girls to have a healthy relationship with her cycle. They'll also learn how to begin key steps to beginning to interpret the messages her cycle is telling her about her health and well-being.

It's important that girls become cycle aware and develop a relationship with their cycles. The relationship she develops begins with how she is taught. Girls who know more cycle awareness, grows more confident and her esteem increases. Also, this positions her to set different standards for herself and those she allows in her life.

At school,​ Jane felt she had to be able to support herself. She didn’t want to be reliant on her parents. They had already worked so hard to give her amazing opportunities and put her through school.

Jane knew accounting was a good option – you can always use accountancy and get a job with it. So she made subject choices at school that she thought would help her get a good TE Score – maths, chemistry, French. Problem was she was really good at art, home economics (particularly clothes design/fabrics) and history.

She likes to talk with girls about the importance of combining what they love and what they are good at in order to be successful in the world.

Jane is the founder of Dreaming Big for Little Girls where she uses creativity to teach the creative process. The creative process is a clever problem-solving tool.

She has been interviewed by The Australian, ABC Radio and other city and regional newspapers and business groups on her unique initiatives for girls.

She has been involved in the governance of independent schools for nearly 15 years. She is also passionate about advancing rural women and girls and is past Chair, Foundation for Australian Agricultural Women.

Much of my Meenal’s art focuses on representing strong women and girls. She believes that it's critical for women and girls to be surrounded by imagery of strong women – as inspiration for themselves and as reminders of their own strength. Meenal also believes that representation and diversity in art is important especially for kids. Coming out of making her first children’s picture book she felt even more strongly about the importance of diversity and representation in imagery. All children deserve to have exposure to a variety of imagery and stories – ones where they can see themselves reflected and ones where they are exposed to many kinds of people who are different from them. Kids need opportunities to see themselves as heroes, to celebrate what makes them unique and to feel connected to other people.

As for the medical establishment?
It tells women to have a glass of wine , see a psychologist, or worse have invasive (and completely unnecessary) surgery. For girls, well, girls don’t even know the issues they are having are normal, in fact for many girls they don’t even know they are having issues until it really starts affecting their extracurricular activities like running, soccer and most especially dancers and gymnast.


Some of the treatments that don’t work are:
* Pelvic organ prolapse mesh surgeries, which do more harm than good and often require a re-fix

* Bladder slings that don’t resolve the urine leaking, but can lead to self-catheterizing or worse erode into the vagina.
* Hysterectomies that could have been avoided - most are conducted for benign reasons. 

* Botox injections in the vaginal walls that are not necessary.

* Prescriptions with severe side-effects that don’t even alleviate the pain or leaking.


But there is hope! Today, meet Isa Herrera. Isa is a licensed physical therapist as well as an expert in integrative pelvic floor therapies in the field of women’s health. She developed her expertise in diagnosing and treating pelvic pain by helping over ten thousand women in her NYC based healing center Renew Physical therapy since 2005.

Amanda is a health coach (and longtime fitness instructor) that teaches women how to take back their power from food and live a full life. So many women use food as a coping mechanism and they have no idea they are. I teach women to empower themselves by overcoming limiting beliefs and truly reconnecting to their bodies.

She loves to talk about the power of putting yourself first so it bleeds into all areas of life. How confidence in self and digging into the root cause of a poor relationship with food and self help create long term change.

The mother/daughter relationship is so powerful to create a future for our daughters.

Rosie her daughter has a dinner plate set with a fairy princess on it. Over breakfast one morning, she wondered why she didn’t have a plate with a scientist, surgeon or plumber on it. Research showed Jennifer that those visuals don’t exist in mainstream merchandise, and if they do, they usually show a man doing the job.
 
Next came the clothing. It’s all too easy to find messages like “When I grow up I want to be a mermaid” or “Princess” – but what about an architect, or a doctor? Messaging on girls’ clothing needs to be directly challenged and that’s what they are doing with their Not Just A Princess (NJAP) merchandise. Jennifer aims to expand their range with more aspirational messages, characters, careers and symbols that challenge gender stereotyping.
 
Jennifer wants her daughter to know that when she grows up, her gender won’t impact her career choice. More importantly, She wants her to understand that she doesn't have to be ‘cute’ or ‘sweet’ – she can be brave and ambitious.

Caryn Antonini ’s mission is to see that our future generations become multilingual and
globally aware. Caryn began speaking foreign languages from a young age and has always been
fascinated with language acquisition and other cultures and customs. Her
passion led her to the Georgetown University School of Languages and

that she cultivated her understanding of how children learn languages and its connection
to their cognitive development. When Caryn had her own child and wanted to
teach him foreign languages at a young age, she found nothing on the market
that put into practice what she had learned. That inspired Caryn to embark on
developing a comprehensive program, the end result being the award-winning,
innovative Early Lingo Learning System.

Caryn works with underprivileged schools in the United States, and In
2013 she partnered with a private trust to bring the Early Lingo English Language
Learning Initiative to Fiji and is working with organizations in the South Pacific to
bring the English language to school centers in the region. She has recently
partnered with independent schools along the East Coast who use the Early
Lingo Language Learning Apps. Early Lingo also works with various foundations
that serve to improve early childhood education for disadvantaged children.
On a global scale, Caryn has created The Young Global Citizens Campaign,
which educates children on how to become empathetic, responsible and
productive members of society in our increasingly interconnected world.

Armed with her own hand-drawn pattern on her dad’s yellow legal pad and the small savings she had earned from her summer job bussing tables, she moved forward with this idea. As a junior in high school in 2014, Megan founded , Yellowberry,  to change the bra industry for girls." 

In 2014, Megan was selected as one of TIME Magazine’s 25 Most Influential Teens and included on Huffington Post’s list of 14 Most Fearless Teens. In 2015, Megan was named one of the 24 Millennials to Watch by Yahoo.

Beach was brought up during the Thatcher years in the 1980s in the UK.  With a woman in power,  Beach believed she could do or be anything she wanted to be. At age 22, with a degree in Politics and History from the University of Keele under her belt, she moved to London where she became one of the youngest Parliamentary Advisers in Westminster.

Now a mother to three kids, a boy and two girls, Beach stopped paid work when she had her son in 2003, choosing to stay home and raise her family. Throughout the early years of her children’s lives, Beach remained active in the community, writing newsletters for the local NCT (National Childbirth Trust), helping out on the PTA when the kids were in pre-school and elementary, and running a Girl Scout troop. To this day she serves on the board of directors for her local children's theater. She also worked as a pre-school teacher for three years.

By early 2017, as her two daughters were growing up, Beach was becoming increasingly alarmed about the impact society was having on them and their hopes and dreams for the future. Against the backdrop of a changing America, she decided to create a new publication aimed at empowering and inspiring tween and teen girls. 

After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the first issue of STRONG was published in September 2017. STRONG focuses on presenting strong female role models, as well as teaching girls practical skills to encourage independence. It also focuses on responsibility, encouraging girls to take responsibility for their own bodies and minds, and tolerance, with regular articles focusing on girls from other countries and cultures.  

STRONG encourages girls to be confident to be themselves, and to be the best version of themselves.  ]]>http://origin2.blogtalkradio.com/raisingapowerfulgirl/2018/04/11/positive-media-for-girls-strong-the-magazine-for-girlsWed, 11 Apr 2018 04:00:00 +0000Maria FullerOur guest today is Sarah Beach, founder, editor and publisher of “STRONG The Magazine for Girls”.  Beach was brought up during the Thatcher years in the 1980s in the UK.  With a woman in power,  Beach believed she could do or be anything she wanted...

Research shows that girls are twice as depressed, anxious and stressed out as boys. 7 out of 10 girls feel that they are not enough or don’t measure up in some way, no matter how many achievements they rack up. In the so-called age of girl power, girls are still trying to fit a perfect mold of pleasing others and looking sexy. They are striving for unattainable perfection and avoiding risks.

 LiveGirl has shown sheri how vulnerable today’s girls are as they face adolescent pressures magnified by social media and role overload. LiveGirl’s mission is to empower girls through year-round leadership development and mentorship. Their programs build social emotional intelligence and self-esteem which equip girls to have a positive impact on the world. Specifically, they focus on surrounding their girls with a positive community.

Hadley Pollet is a contemporary American designer from New Canaan, Connecticut  known for her timeless accessories that inspire kind, powerful women to shine strong.

Hadley’s signature belt designs sprung from inspiration while at Rhode Island School of Design. Her unique style caught the eyes of many when she wore a belt made of vintage ribbon and a buckle out to a birthday party in Boston where several people asked where she got the belt. Since then, her line has exploded with extensive press coverage, and exposure in high end stores worldwide, quickly  growing from just belts into a lifestyle brand including handbags, jewelry and homegoods made with Hadley’s copyrighted textile designs.

Her inspiration for not only her business, but also her business's purpose was discovered after 9/11. Hadley felt propelled to channel the chaos going on politically, economically, and socially into something positive and uplifting. After several years of working in marketing and public relations for textile and fashion companies, in January 2002 Hadley Pollet launched her own line belts made with copyrighted textiles that conveyed hope and happiness.  

Hadley and her signature designs inspire women to radiate the power of kindness despite the ongoing negativity in our world. She prides herself for creating a brand that represents self expression, empowerment, and confidence by igniting an emotional desire for women to feel spiritually uplifted when dressing. Her brand is known to deliver women the ability to express themselves wholeheartedly, whether someone is a hippie, downright preppy or both. Her hope is that every day, women wake up and dress as the best form of their spiritual selves, expressing themselves brightly.

Hadley Pollet is dedicated to aiding and inspiring young women to be future leaders of the world.

RESEARCH INDICATES MOST GIRLS DEFINE LEADERSHIP AND BRAVERY AS SOMETHING ‘HEROIC.’ IN FACT, ONLY 1/3 OF MIDDLE-SCHOOL GIRLS TODAY BELIEVE THEY CAN BE A LEADER.THE NUMBERS GO DOWN AS THEY GET OLDER.  

UNFORTUNATELY, THE DATA PROVES GIRLS HAVE AN UPHILL BATTLE. RESEARCH PROVES:

-Girls pride themselves on perfectionism and, therefore, avoid taking risks that could help them grow. 

-They hate conflict, so they do not end up practicing self-advocacy or communicating during difficult conversations. 

-To avoid being labeled "bossy" they turn away from leadership roles.

ON TOP OF THESE INTERNAL ROADBLOCKS, GIRLS FEEL SOCIETY'S TRIPLE BIND:

-Be confident, but not conceited

-Be smart, but no one likes a know-it-all

-Ambition is good, but trying too hard is bad

-Be assertive, but only if it does not upset anyone else.

My Guest today is Laura Clydesdale 

Her goal is to shed light on these issues that affect girls so heavily. Of course, helping her daughter navigate these tough issues is her top priority, but by chronicling their journey, she  also strives to help other girls along the way.
