Girls today have many things that can derail them. But with the right skill sets, they can override those things and be successful in their life. Leadership skills are learned. Self-esteem skills are learned. Financial literacy skills are learned.  We must equip and educate girls with these crucial skills to win at life. But many girls today are feeling depressed, anxious, lonely, insecure and battle with an array of challenges. Let’s talk about the statistics of girls today. We are battling the highest suicide rate in girls in 40 years along with many other staggering statistics like teen pregnancy (1 million nationwide per year). Read more statistics here. Additionally, experts say electronic and social media addiction is one of the main causes behind the rise in suicides and lower self-esteem. All girls have encountered some of the 7 “derailers” at school or in their personal lives (see left). We believe that the key to overcoming these challenges lies in preventing them. One way we do that is by equipping girls with the tools to rise above these obstacles and to have the skills to navigate these obstacles.

Our Mission:

Our mission is to teach teen girls positive skill sets that will influence healthy choice making, create strong self-esteem and build strong financial literacy with our live programs and online classes.

1. Our 12 Leadership Principles: The 12 principles to be able to lead your life and goals to success
