22.01.2022 I love this so much...so much wisdom in these words. I hope more girls have the courage to stand strong in who they are, know their worth and are prepared to challenge and question the status quo and not conform because everyone around them wants to. It takes courage to embrace your individuality in a world that rewards conformity. Our girls need the love and support of caring adults in their life..to listen to them, to help guide them to make better decisions for themselves. What advice or words would you give to your 15 year old daughter? Thanks Janine Garner for sharing this powerful post.
22.01.2022 What does a 'good' relationship with your daughter look like to you? Flowing conversation? Confiding her fears and hopes and dreams in you? Less fighting for her attention (mainly against the screen she's glued to!)... Less fighting altogether? What does 'good' parenting feel like? Harmonious? Being able to navigate the invisible emotional rollercoaster she seems to be on? A daughter grateful for your support, who feels heard and understood? Having confidence that the decisions you're making, and boundaries you're holding fast to, will pay off in the long run to help her become the woman she's destined to be? Can you imagine what it would feel like to be both in-sync with, and respected by, your daughter? To be able to communicate, connect, and agree on life choices. To understand her and to feel validated in your parenting decisions? You can have the relationship you’d hoped for with your daughter. You can feel more confident in your parenting decisions How?? By signing up for the courageous parenting course. You will learn so much and be supported by two parenting experts and a community of parents like you, going through the same challenges with the same aspirations. If you’re sitting on the fence about signing up for the courageous parenting course with Girl Shaped Flames, remember early bird pricing ends soon. It might just be the best investment you make in guiding your girls to be the best version of themselves and you might even learn a thing or two about you and your parenting style .

11.01.2022 Check out these recommended books on raising girls. I’ve decided to share my insights from parenting books I read. I’m currently reading Untangled so will share some insights from this soon. Let me know if you’ve read any great books for raising girls.
10.01.2022 I hope more young men make a stand, I hope more girls make a stand, I hope together we can create change .. This is such an endemic issue... The viral petition circulating social media currently has 2,500 testimonies of sexual assault from private schools in Sydney. This isn’t just a private school issue. This is happening everywhere. More needs to be done..at home, at schools, in the community, in society. These conversations need to happen way earlier in homes and schools-... not after it’s too late and the damage is done. I admire the girls for speaking out and taking brave action. I admire Asher Learmonth for bravely speaking up. 1 See more

09.01.2022 Lisa Damour, Ph.D. Talks about the 7 developmental strands of adolescence in her book ‘Untangled’ The first strand parting with childhood, -around the age of 12, your tween seems to abruptly separate herself from everything that seems childlike. This stage can feel like rejection as your daughter seeks her independence and identity separate from you. And it’s during this stage that your relationship can start to feel strained as your teen feels aloof, withdrawn and sometim...es down right mean. Being pushed away and distancing themselves for days can feel stressful but even more so when she suddenly interrupts days of distance with Intense warmth and Intimacy. I remember a mum telling me it’s like riding an emotional roller coaster as she struggled with this constant back and forth with her daughter. One minute her daughter was confiding in her , sharing secrets, wanting her advice and the next she was being pushed away hard! As hard as it is to deal with these rejections, then glimmers of warmth and intimacy, the truth is our girls need us to be their rock, to know that we will be there in those moments they really need us. Enjoy those moments and know that when she pushes you away again, it’s her way of feeling safe again to explore her independence away from you. Try not to take it personally, and know that this is part of her transition into becoming a young adult. I’d love to hear your thougts and experience during this stage. See more
04.01.2022 Consent-such an important topic and conversation to have with our teens. I love this simple, clever and powerful analogy around consent. This is well worth sharing with your teens.
03.01.2022 Who it is our daughters are, is NOT how they look. I love this message from Dr Shevali- such an important one. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of commenting on how they look- think about how you comment and what you say not just to your daughters but to yourself and to other women. Do you always comment on HOW they look or how they’re being? A good reminder to stop and pause before we next comment. Let’s focus on building our girls from the inside out, building up their self worth and belief intrinsically, not extrinsic. What are your thoughts on this?
01.01.2022 Wow!! How incredibly strong, brave, inspiring and articulate. So many women have suffered from childhood abuse and have suffered in silence for so long for the shame and guilt they have carried for years. This generation and our daughters generation will be the change our society so badly needs. To all the womxn- know that you are amazing. Know that your power is being a womxn.
