Healthy Self-Esteem is something that parents have to learn and cultivate within themselves too.  In fact, we come face to face with this sometimes when we have children while rectifying our own childhood.  Once it is cultivated we become more clear about ways in which it enriches ours and our children.  In this episode Laurel Handfield, Owner of Happy Island Press, shares with us how she came to the conclusion that black girls need more representations of their beauty - both inner and outer.  

We cover things like:

Ways our parents unwittingly contribute to our self-esteem issues

Ways we can cultivate healthy esteem in our children

Why it is important to ensure we take care of ourselves and HOW to do so in a deep and enduring way

These are just a few topics. Laurel also shares a free tool you can access to work to continuously build your own and your children's self-esteem in a fun and creative way.
