Good Friends vs Bad Friends

One of our 5 keys we focus on in our workshops is Good Friends versus Bad Friends. Coming up with ideas for this station, came from a lot of personal experience when going through my self-worth trials. These friendships are something that I have realized have a huge impact on my view of self. Often, we let those around us; greatly influence what we think of ourselves. Sometimes we can be surrounding ourselves with “bad” friends and not even realize they are subtly bring us down. I found a list on the internet that can help you decipher if your friends are “good” friends or “bad” friends. As you read it, think about those closest to you and which category they fall into. It took a long time for me to learn the difference myself, and I feel I am finally at a place where I no longer have toxic friends in my life.

So there, that’s a topic; let’s talk about how we can be unapologetic, brave, resilient girls and celebrate our enoughness.

Share Your Sparkle Day Campaign..Start Brainstorming Ideas Today!

Share Your Sparkle Day is around the corner so today we challenge you to start thinking about what this event is all about. Here is my take on SYSD and hopefully you can take it and start brainstorming some ideas for what you are going to do on May 13 th . We started Share Your Sparkle Day last year as a way to get schools more involved in spreading the SSS message and to reach kids who haven’t been able to participate in our workshops. This event is based off of one of our 5 Keys to Self-Worth – Making Your Mark. In the station that we have in our workshops, we talk about using our special talents to make an impact on others and then we put that into practice by helping out a partner organization, Project Valentine. Share Your Sparkle Day is essentially an extended practical version of that station. This is the chance for everyone to take a step back from being so focused on themselves and what they have going on and considering things that are much bigger. It's a time to th
