The mid-to late elementary school years are when girls look to their mother for guidance and confirmation on how to live a healthy and happy life. This can be a vulnerable time for moms since it can bring up memories of their own challenging late adolescent years and struggles that they may still be working through as an adult.

If you’re like me, you grew up in the 80s and 90s when fat would make you fat, people sweat to the oldies to burn off last night’s dessert, and South Beach was not a vacation destination.

Fast forward to today. Diets have been renamed to “wellness plans” under the guise of promoting a healthy lifestyle. However, these “wellness plans” are still encouraging us and our daughters to eliminate food groups, they are promoting false images of what our bodies should look like, and they are making us focus more on the way we look and what we eat instead of fueling our power and achievements.

And with the introduction of social media, harmful ideals and behaviors are reaching our girls earlier and earlier.

Did you know…

• A rapidly changing body can cause worry as physical development often occurs before mental, social, and emotional maturity.
• The onset of anorexia is most commonly around the same time as puberty.
• Girls have an increased risk of developing an eating disorder if they have a family history of eating disorders or disordered eating.
• By age 14, many girls are dropping out of sports at two times the rate of boys.
• The most common mental health issues experienced in adolescence are stress, anxiety, and depression.
• Female adolescents have been reported to be two to three times more likely to experience anxiety and depression as their male peers.

These statistics are scary, and as mothers, we can feel helpless against the messages that society sends our girls.  

And it is only the beginning.

Once our daughters reach middle school, they will be exposed to even more peer pressures and social media images and ideals.

Is Well & Strong for me and my daughter? 

🗹 My daughter is in or finishing 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade.
🗹 My daughter’s asked if a cookie (or other dessert) is healthy or if it will make her fat.
🗹 I want to help her eat healthy but she thinks I am nagging.
🗹 I want her to enjoy being active but everything I suggest, she rolls her eyes.
🗹 The thought of talking to her about her weight or her body freaks me out.
🗹 I want her to be confident and have emotional coping skills.
🗹 I don’t want her to hate her body like I do/used to.

How much time does this take?

Well & Strong was created with mom life in mind.  This 6 module online course spans over the period of 7 weeks (the 4th week will be a catch-up week – I mean, let’s get real… life happens!).  Each week, you will receive 3 modules (physical activity, nutrition, and self-compassion). Each module ranges from 10 minutes to 45 minutes.  You can always spend more or less time on each module.  This course is life-changing, if you put in the work.

Does Well & Strong start at a specific time?

For this initial launch, yes.  By starting the course on a scheduled start date, other moms and daughters will be participating in the program at the exact same time. This allows for lively interactive online community discussions and real-time Q&A.
