Raising girls who know their worth: Practical tools for building assertiveness, autonomy, and resilience with Kate Rope
Description
Joining me this week is Kate Rope. We're talking about how parents can raise daughters who feel strong, capable, and deeply connected to themselves, while also supporting our own mental health as parents.
Together we explore:
- How to parent from hope (rather than fears) and why this can help your child feel safer, more capable, and resilient.
- How identifying your family’s "North Star values" can guide you through tough parenting decisions.
- The deceptively simple, yet powerful shift of pausing and listening before reacting.
- Practical ways to nurture assertiveness, support healthy friendships, and help girls trust their inner voice.
- Why our own self-care and modeling are essential to raising strong, emotionally secure kids.
- How to create everyday opportunities for girls to practice autonomy, confidence, and consent.
Whether you’re raising a daughter or simply want to strengthen the emotional wellbeing of the kids in your care, this conversation is filled with insight, validation, and real-life strategies you can start using right away.
