Daughters of Change Marie Sola

Today I'm talking with Laura Genese, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications for the Girl Scouts of Maine, and Helen Ruhlin, Marketing and Communications Specialist for the Girl Scouts of Maine.

We are excited to tell you more about the GSME Media Squad and the exciting changes coming up for the Passion to Action series.

Today I’m bringing back a very special Daughter of Change - Carolyn Delaney - my very first guest on this podcast in the July 2019 episode “Amplifying Hope”.

We’ll learn how her platform, Journey Magazine, has grown by making recovery visible and changing the narrative about addiction.

My guest on this episode, Aliza Hava, is an award-winning singer/songwriter whose music explores the deepest levels of love, life, and the power of positive social change.

Our guests today are the directors of the Maine Girl Scout camps.

Girl Scout Camp enhances kids’ well-being through face-to-face connections and outdoor activities. Kids can be screen-free in a fun and safe environment that fosters social skills and happy campers! More outdoor experiences allow campers to embrace challenges and excel in problem-solving, qualities vital for future success, both academically and personally. Time in nature boosts concentration and creative reasoning. Outdoor experiences enhance healthy social development and boost self-esteem.

I’m excited to be re-releasing this episode with our youngest Daughter of Change to date - Rosie – from the popular Go Rosie Grow show. Rosie is an amazing eight-year-old from Detroit Michigan who uses her talents to shine a light on historical black figures and icons. Since we spoke in March of 2023, big things have been happening for Rosie and her family's team of talented women known as “The Big 3” - a nod to their hometown auto industry.

Raising strong girls is finally having its moment and the Girl Scouts are front and center in helping to make that happen.
