Last week’s Confident Me GLOW session with the Boys & Girls Club was about health & food. Listening to our bodies and seeing food as fuel, joy,& connection. We also drew flowers and talked about what we need to thrive, just like they do. @PlanCanada @Dove @bgcottawa @tackaberryk

Last week’s Confident Me GLOW session at @bgcottawa was incredible! We dug into social media + self-image, and the girls’ insights blew me away. Our creative activity was a hit, from gingerbread artists to pipe-cleaner actors. So much confidence + creativity. @PlanCanada @Dove

@GlowProgram kicked things off with big conversations on body confidence and self-esteem and busting myths. We explored how our unique personalities and pasts shape how we connect with others. So much insight in the first session! @PlanCanada @bgcottawa @Dove #ThePowerWithin
