Raising Confident & Capable Girls (Our Version of a 90s Summer) | Ep. 62
I don’t want a perfect summer. I want a connected one. And I’m guessing you’re feeling similar.
This episode feels a little like sitting down for coffee together and just being real about what we want our summer to look like.
Because if you’re anything like me, there’s always this tension between wanting summer to feel magical and memorable… while also needing to work, keep the house functioning, and maybe (just maybe!) stay on top of the laundry.
(Core memories AND clean laundry, please.)
In today’s episode, I’m sharing a few of the things we’re intentionally focusing on with our girls this summer. Not from a place of pressure or perfection, but from a desire to raise girls who are confident, capable, grounded, and connected.
From responsibility and contribution inside the home… to confidence through challenge… to faith, character, money, independence, and slowing down enough to actually enjoy each other — this is the kind of summer we’re hoping to create.
Here’s the power in today’s episode:
* Why we created “Summer Captain” and “First Mate” roles for our girls
* The connection between responsibility, confidence, and capability
* Why challenge and hard things can actually build healthy confidence
* Teaching girls initiative, contribution, and ownership
* Our thoughts on money, earning, and independence for girls
* Why character matters more to us than performance
* The tension of working from home while wanting a connected summer
* What it looks like to hold summer rhythms loosely instead of chasing perfection
Listen in if you want to approach your summer with intention, not perfection.
