What Do I Speak About

Confidence Building

It is important to talk to girls about building their self-esteem and confidence and how to rise above outside influences such as media influence and peer pressure as well as pressure from family. Self-esteem is built up over time and it goes hand in hand with confidence. It is made up of thoughts, opinions, and feelings a girl has about herself and as such, it can change based on the way a girl thinks.

Entrepreneurial conversations

Girls need to be educated on access to finance, particularly those in rural areas. Access to finance is a real challenge for many African women and is a way for them to achieve their entrepreneurial goals. The conversation has to go towards telling them the kinds of businesses they can do to help themselves. Just like education, access to finance and ensuring entrepreneurship have a ripple effect. It means access to self-sufficiency, dignity, and security. The benefit extends to the community and generations to come. These are things girls need to be told from an early age. 

Self-love and Self-Worth Conversations

Girls need to be taught how to accept compliments graciously and not overlook the positive things people say about them. Conversations from an early age need to teach them to learn to appreciate and absorb compliments and take them seriously and to give sincere compliments to others too as this does not in any way diminish their self-worth. They need to love themselves first and in the right way before those around them can love them and be their own best advocate. They need to also take pride in their opinions and ideas as a girl and that someone disagreeing with them doesn’t affect their worth or intelligence. Learn to not compete with other girls/women but focus on her positive traits and cheer others on. 

Tenacity 

Talking to the girls/women about forgiving themselves and being determined to finish strong.
