Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful

Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful is a workshop for middle school girls (grades 6-8) that focuses on body positivity and self-image issues, and addresses the negative effects the media has on body image. Through a combination of interactive activities and open discussion, we seek to help young girls achieve a sense of confidence that is not based on outer beauty.

From Kim Davis, the School Counselor from Sierra Middle School: “This is our second year attending the Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful Conference, and each year our girls absolutely love it! The presenters are always relatable, which makes for a comfortable environment. After the workshop, our girls come back to school energized, refreshed and encouraged. We plan to attend every year!”
