If you’re an adult who loves a badass teen or preteen girl*, you’re likely feeling:

  • shook up by how intense it is to be parenting or supporting a preteen or teen right now… 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏿‍♀️

  • like you want your girl to know her worthiness without question, but you’re coming up short in the face of her mounting anxiety, self-doubt, and screen obsession 📲

  • confused by the cultural messaging you’re getting to back off in your kid’s pre-teen + teen years… when your intuition is telling you she needs you more than ever (maybe just in a different way?) 📿🔮🤯

  • ready for more support!!!!!

*or gender fluid, non-binary or trans young human socialized as a girl (those are the badasses we work with here)

 


 

And in your dreamiest of dreamy dreams… you want to:

HEY, I’M ELIZA 🖖🏻 AND I’VE BEEN TEACHING PRETEEN + TEEN GIRLS FOR 15 YEARS.

(SINCE I WAS 15 MYSELF).

I had a unique start.

I was born to a mama who’s a mover and a shaker. I started leading workshops with her when I was 15. We wrote a best-selling book (Mothering & Daughtering) and went on the road together for almost 13 years teaching sold-out workshops more thousands of mothers and their preteen + teen daughters at places like the Omega Institute, the Kripalu Center, and the Esalen Institute.

I studied Gender & Sexuality at Brown University. I consulted with Eve Ensler on her book for teen girls. I was trained as a peer educator for Planned Parenthood. I wrote my thesis on nutrition, eating disorders and intuitive eating. I solo hiked half of the West Highland Way at 21 (and then two middle-aged Scottish nurses tucked me into bed and saved my blistered feet).

I got trained as a Qoya movement teacher. I spoke at conferences where every other speaker was 2 or 3x my age. I found my own mentor in embodiment, somatics and trauma-informed practice. I became an herbalist tracing my own indigenous Celtic ways. My writing, speaking and teaching calls B.S. on the cultural stereotype that teen girls are selfish, mean, vapid, and image-obsessed. Instead, I give voice to, celebrate, and create spaces for teen girls’ sensitivity, wacky passions, feisty comebacks, fierce truths, tender hearts, sensual embodiment, and ever-evolving self expression.

I’m here for interdependence (we need each other), embodiment (bodies are good) and liberation (freedom, justice and joy for all). You too?

My daughter found her voice in a new way. She feels heard, valued and encouraged by this circle. She belongs to herself.

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.
