- Parenting
As parents, we quickly understand that raising children can not be done in isolation. We need the help and support of family, friends, professionals and programs that assist parents with guiding children through the increasingly complex world.
Katie Parker is President/CEO of Bloomfully, LLC which includes the Singers Company (created for Elementary) and I Believe In Me! (created for Middle School). Katie has a passion for building the confidence of young girls, tweens and women. Her mission is to help them grow above the comparison, the criticism, and the self-doubt that are plaguing girls.
We had the opportunity to talk to Katie Parker, Becky Fife and Allie Callister who are the owners and co-creators of the I Believe In Me program.
Allie Callister is an owner, co-creator and content developer for I Believe In Me. She is passionate about helping women of all ages look and feel confident.
Beck Fife is an owner and co creator of both Bloomfully and I Believe In Me. She is passionate about helping young girls develop confidence early on, so they can overcome negative influences in the world.
Our discussion today included:
How we can help teens and tweens discover their gifts.
Ways tweens and teens can counteract the increasing sadness and decline in mental health seen among their peers.
The different ways parents can help them in the process of reducing sadness.
The importance of feeling needed in the teen years.
Fostering internal motivation and internal acceptance as a parent.
Regulating the daily schedule.
Parenting looks much different today than 30-40 years ago. Here are some differences.
Each child has their own unique wiring.
Parenting highly sensitive children and neurodiverse children, and how we can help our daughters through failures, disappointments and hard emotions.
Suggestions to stop the negative self-talk and stop the comparison game in our tweens and teens.
The importance of a safe place.
Looking for the good and not setting children up to fail.
The power of the mind.
The four c's which are deadly to growth.
