Do you ever find yourself battling against the conditioning you received as a young girl? Many well-intentioned adults have reinforced messages that girls should always be nice, modest, and trim and it can take a lifetime to learn how to break with that past conditioning. Our guest in this episode, Carmin Caterina, is trying to change that. Carmin started a program for girls to help teach them to believe in themselves, find their voices, and develop a healthy body image. She is making a difference, one girl at a time!
