“I now have strategies for when I’m feeling stressed out or anxious. I feel safer. I love being with my circle. Really committing to Badass Girls is just committing to caring for yourself (which is the most important thing you can do).”
“My daughter found her voice in a new way. She feels heard, valued and encouraged by this circle. She belongs to herself.”
“Before joining my circle, I felt lonely a lot of the time and like I wasn’t being seen. I had never had friends they way I do with girls from Badass Girls, including my mentor. Something was missing from my life, I knew. When I found the site and read what they were all about, it just clicked. It felt very right. My expectations were high, and they were exceeded beyond what I dared to hope for. Having a support like my circle and my mentors helps me to be more confident, to be softer, to take up more space, to have more fun, to be a sister to girls from school or other places, in my life.”
“I’ve never felt more loved and accepted than when I’m with my circle. I went into it thinking I was going to learn all these things I should change to be a happier, better person, but then my mentor just wanted to get to know me, the real me.”
“I was nervous when my mom suggested Badass Girls, but right away I felt so accepted. I feel like now I can make a balanced life for myself and slow down from the craziness. I feel so open, relaxed and safe with my circle. ”
“Badass Girls was way more effective and positive for our daughter than therapy (and I’m a psychologist!) and frankly more cost effective in the end.”
“Eliza taught my girl (in a way that I could not) that self-acceptance, love and care are not only essential, but also smart and cool.”
“Before Badass Girls, my girl was turning to her friends for advice. She was making big decisions about her life (like dating and classes and friendships) without a lot of positive mentorship and guidance. Now she’s got a big sister on call for all of life’s ups and downs. She loves celebrating her big life events with her mentor, and she turns to her to ask ANY question whenever she feels stuck, insecure or lonely (and her mentor responds in a way that she’ll listen to and receive). She’s still connected to her friends, but I see her making her decisions from a wiser place. She nurtures herself, honors her feelings, and is taking ownership of her life. She feels empowered to be herself, regardless of what her friends think or want.As a parent, I LOVE knowing a mentor I trust has my girl’s back. Badass Girls is changing the world, one girl at a time.”
“I want all girls to come to Badass Girls, because I want them all to know they deserve this kind of loving community that has your back no matter what.”
