In this workshop your daughter will learn that her body is unique, it is her own, and it is powerful. This will lay the foundations for a healthy and loving attitude towards both her own body and her emerging sexuality.

Please Note:

This is not an explicit workshop about sex, but it will lay important foundations for healthy sexual relating in the future.

The information will be delivered in a fun, palatable, age appropriate and gentle way.

The workshop will be structured around "practical tools" for your daughter to use (mindset, communication, emotional regulation).

The workshop will be phone-free (I will have a basket where I collect and store devices at the beginning and they can check their phones in the break if they need to).

There will be three parts:

1. Mindset tools - we will look at the effects of the media on how we feel, and we will begin to teach critical thinking (aka Body positivity, media myths and diversity) This is important in this day and age of increased social media everything we see can be manipulated digitally and consequently that which isn't normal becomes normalised.

2. Communication tools - we will look at lots of ways to say "No" in tricky (non-sexual) situations with your friends and family (aka Body autonomy, consent and communication). This is important because it is one thing knowing that something doesn't feel right, yet it is a whole nother thing having the tools to know what to say in response.

3. Embodiment tools - we will look at the proper female anatomy and the role our biology/nervous system has with regards to our emotions and feeling safe in our body, and trusting its signals (aka Empowered anatomy, pleasure and self connection). This is important because when your daughter has knowledge of, and confidence in, her own body she knows that she is the source of her own power and she is less likely to outsource it to others.

In the parent/carer evening I will briefly cover the material I will be presenting to the children during the workshop I will answer any of your questions, and I will share a stack of resources with you, including some of my collection of books that may be helpful for you and your child.

There will be an opportunity for anonymous Q&A at the end of the workshop. If any concerns arise, I will follow up with you in a reflection email sent to all parents.
