Talking Confidence: Confidence of Young Women in College & High School, Part 2- New Tech High School Talking Confidence with Holly Caplan

Welcome to part two of this series based on the Confidence of Young Women. In the last episode we talked about college aged women, their confidence, and the challenges they face. In this episode we are going to be having a similar discussion, but this time, with high school women. We are going to discuss how do they manage their confidence, and really, how much has changed over the years, despite women making more and more headway in education and the workplace.
 
Clarity Empowers is a new community at New Tech high school that is focused on elevating teen girls by teaching them life skills, encouraging leadership, education and most importantly confidence. Clarity, as they call it, was created and is led by teacher and educator Shannon Howard. She will be joining us today with two students of New Tech who are co-founders and key leaders of Clarity Empowers. Vibha R. and Sophia S. Together we are going to talk about what it is like to be in high school today, what challenges women face and how they get through it.
