Welcome to Girls Journeying Together!
Our pre-teen years can be a truly magical time. Our world and capabilities expand, and we can start to see the possibilities for who we are and who we might become. But it can also be challenging – transitioning to secondary school, seeing friendships shift, dealing with social media, experiencing new feelings and seeing our bodies change rapidly before our eyes. There are so many different ways we can respond – from stepping out with pride to stepping back with embarrassment or fear.
I’m passionate about helping girls walk confidently into their teens feeling self-assured and supported. My groups are warm, caring spaces where girls can ask questions that they might not feel able to ask anywhere else and where every girl can be herself, without any need to change anything to fit in.
We meet monthly, learning about how to care for our changing bodies and minds, how to claim our self-worth and how to have good friends. We cover periods, puberty and the influence of peers and media. We dream into our futures and share our hopes – having lots of fun and making good friends as we do!
As well as facilitating girls’ groups, I love 5 Rhythms dancing, yoga, hanging out with my kids, dog and cat, hot chocolates and warm hugs! I’m a certified Red School menstruality mentor, Girls’ Net Mentor and coach. I’ve also worked in education policy, teaching, regulation and equalities, and I’m a trustee of a Warwickshire mental health organisation.
I would love to welcome your daughter to one of my groups – and to offer you support as their mother, or mother-figure, too.
