Another in the books! I am so proud of all the girls, it was so hot and so humid and they pushed through and finished strong 🩷🩵💜

Yesterday we had the most incredible visitor come talk to the girls.

Danish is a sophomore at Cornell studying public health, an avid runner, and an ambassador for the organization Free to Run. However she grew up in Afghanistan, where education, exercise, and independence were not allowed for women and young girls.

I was blown away by the thoughtfulness of the girls questions, the outrage they felt for all the girls and women affected by these rules, and the compassion and motivation they expressed in wanting to help make change.

I am so excited for what we have planned for the future of GirlStrong, and to see what future these amazing girls create for themselves 💜🩵🩷

We've been talking a lot about healthy eating so last night our teen girls made overnight oats to take home. Afterwards we explored the Lansing Trails with a 2.5 mile walk!

GirlStrong is about giving girls a safe space and the freedom to explore their feelings, their challenges, their strengths, and who they are becoming.

Hi! Our summer session is off to an awesome start, positive affirmations, weekly fitness challenges, healthy eating habits and more!
Working with another amazing group of girls has me thinking of future offerings of GirlStrong.

Would there be any interest in a mini GirlStrong camp the last week of August or the first week of September before school starts? Let me know in the comments!
