In this episode of The Soulful CEO Path, Lauren MacKinnon, a Leadership Coach + a Facilitator at Lauren MacKinnon Coaching & Consulting, and the Founder of superpowHER - a leadership experience that empowers girls for tomorrow, joins Kristin Constable to explore how we can support young women and girls build confidence and leadership skills at an early age.
Instead of waiting until adulthood to unlearn perfectionism, people-pleasing, and self-doubt, Lauren is on a mission to equip girls early—with the tools, self-awareness, and emotional fluency they need to lead in life, business, and beyond.
Together, they dive into the power of early mentorship, the importance of helping girls connect to their intuition and voice, and how the way we lead ourselves as adults deeply impacts the generation coming up behind us.
Whether you're a parent, coach, educator, or a leader who wants to shape a more empowered future—this conversation will change how you think about leadership development from the ground up.
Episode Highlights:
- The Confidence Gap: Lauren shares that by age 8, girls’ confidence begins to drop by 30% compared to boys. By age 14, that gap widens further—impacting how they speak up, take risks, and see themselves as leaders.
- Early Intervention > Adult Unlearning: Why equipping girls with leadership tools before their teens is far more effective than trying to "fix" burnout, people-pleasing, and perfectionism later in life.
- Modeling Matters: How the way we show up as women—how we lead, rest, speak, and make decisions—teaches the next generation far more than our words ever could.
- Authenticity Over Achievement: Lauren breaks down how to raise girls who value their voice, vision, and values over external approval or hustle-driven success.
- Soulful CEO Leadership: Lauren shares her take on legacy—not just as something we leave behind, but something we live into daily by raising and mentoring the next generation with intention.
