RAISING A TEEN GIRL? TELL HER THIS OFTEN! How you RAISING A TEEN GIRL? TELL HER THIS OFTEN! How you look is the least interesting thing about you. Celebrate the STRENGTH in her legs. The COURAGE it takes to stand on a start line. The WORK she puts in when nobody is watching. The teammate she encourages. The confidence to try something hard, FAIL, get back up and TRY AGAIN. Teach her that itā€™s okay to be COMPETITIVE. To be STRONG. To take up SPACE. To SWEAT, get dirty, work hard and BE PROUD of what her body is capable of. And remind that strong girls support strong girls. Our daughters are growing up surrounded by messages about how they should look. Letā€™s make sure our voices are louder. Be a beast. Take up space. Work hard. Support others. Let your light shine. ā¤ļø #girlsinsport #womeninspiringwomen #StrongGirls #RaisingGirls ParentingGirls
