Beyond the Mirror - Building self-esteem with our teens
What if beauty wasn’t something to live up to, but something to grow into? In this empowering talk, we’ll explore how modern beauty standards and social media are shaping teen and female self-worth—and how we can change the conversation. Through personal stories, interactive tools and tangible activities, we’ll unpack the pressures of the digital world and offer practical ways to build real confidence in our teens. This isn’t about makeup tips—it’s about helping young people feel boldly beautiful from the inside out. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or teen, join us to shift how we see and support the next generation.
