Raising Strong Girls

What does it really mean to raise strong girls — and how has our understanding of their needs evolved? In this heartfelt conversation, we talk with CHC experts, Marjan Ebadi, PhD and Emily Hsu, PhD, about the unique challenges girls face growing up today.

From the moment a young girl says, “I can’t do it,” to the pressures of body image, perfectionism, and social media, we explore how confidence develops — and sometimes dips — through childhood and adolescence. We’ll share real stories, and practical ways parents can help girls build resilience, embrace mistakes, and believe in their own brilliance.

We’ll also talk about the power of modeling confidence as adults, and why this generation of girls gives us so much hope for the future.
