Good news everyone! Girls For Progress speaker alumni @stacylnadeau will be a mentor for the mini sessions! She will be focusing on body image, confidence, and self esteem. Below is more information about her! Please share it to any teen girls nationwide! - In the summer of 2005, six women made national news when they appeared on a Times Square billboard, dressed only in their underwear. While other nearby billboards featured actresses and supermodels, this one, promoting Dove brand products, promoted real women with real curves and the nation went wild. Suddenly, Stacy, was thrust into the national spotlight. As one of the real women featured in the ad campaign, Stacy quickly emerged as a spokeswoman for healthy body image. She appeared on the Today Show, CNN, Ellen, Dr. Phil, Tyra, and Oprah (twice). Since then Stacy has committed her life and career to helping women feel great about themselves. Stacy has leveraged her experience and organizational psychology background to create impactful programming for countless campuses, sororities, and CEOs. Stacy lives in Chicago, IL with her family. She works full-time as a speaker, consultant, and coach to empower women everywhere. - #mentor #mentors #mentorship #corona #mentorschangemindsets #confident #confidence #selflove #selfesteem #loveyourself #lovemyself

Trying to turn a ➖ into a ➕ Since the Corona Virus has the country on breaks from work, school, (I am personally out off school for the next 2 weeks) etc. I would like to have a few mini mentorship sessions for girls that may not much to do but want to learn and grow during this time period. I would like to women that would be willing to take an hour of their time to mentor a teenish aged girl about leadership, self esteem, STEM, entrepreneurship, etc sometime over the next couple of weeks. In order to get this started up, please tag women who you think would be interested or comment if you are interested and I will follow up with you via DM. If I tagged you, I am hoping you may be available, or know people who may be available to take part in this. Once I get a feeling for mentor availability I will post something for girls to connect with me so I can connect them with someone for a mini mentor session. As in my Ted X talk I truly believe that #mentorschangemindsets and hope while we are practicing social distancing, that we can still learn and grow from each other. #mentor #mentors #mentorship #corona #lead #leadership #opportunity #opportunities #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #mentorschangemindsets #STEM
