Hi Reader,

A couple weeks ago, I stepped onto a frozen river with my Business Bestie.

A well-traveled winter trail outside of Canmore. My nervous system however, did not care about this fact.
​

The sound of water beneath the ice at one point was audible. The surface shimmered and shifted under my ice cleats.
My Business Bestie marveled and highlighted at how wild it was to convince our minds that this was a good idea.

And yet… we did it.

Not because we were reckless, rather because we noticed something important:
The thing standing between us and a beautiful experience was fear disguised as logic.

Our minds are very good at trying to keep us safe. And sometimes they do just that (GO BRAIN!)🧠
But sometimes that safety system becomes overprotective.

It shows up as:
• Don’t raise your hand, you might be wrong.
• Don’t go, you might not belong.
• Don’t try that, you might fail.

And so many teen girls (and adults too) experience staying on the riverbank, watching life instead of stepping into it (or onto it in this case😂) .

​

Confidence is the willingness to move in spite of the anxiety, doubt, and uncertainty.

And when we aspire to that as adults we state- It's ok to try hard things. In turn, helping our teen daughters build a nervous system that trusts itself.

​

​

Here’s to raising girls who walk on water. 💙

​

With so much gratitude,
