“My kids adored going to the afterschool creative wellbeing program. They were so full of life after each session, excited to tell me what they did whilst keeping their creations a secret until the last session. Parents joined in the last session and the kids creations were set up like an exhibition. The kids were so proud and it was really special. Parents were honoured by their kids and we honoured them for who they are and their creations over the term.”

“My daughter said she felt free to be herself, and inspired by the others in the sessions. It’s nice to see my kids thrive as the wonderful humans they are.”

“What a full beautiful and holistic program, we are so grateful to be part of this as it has strengthened our mother daughter relationship and my daughter’ peer relationships too. I want to thank Nat for the amazing space she created for my daughter and I to share, how special and needed that was. To the courageous and strong mums who shared such honest words, I related so strongly to everything spoken and have been holding you in my thoughts and heart. Love you all and thank you. I hope to share a space together again soon.”

“My daughter loved their sessions with Natalie and the other girls. My eldest has shown a lot more patience with her sister since attending the workshops.” - Alex

“This program made a profound difference in my daughter’s understanding of relationship to herself and others. She is better able to express her needs and resolve conflict and has an increased understanding of how our thoughts about ourselves impact our wellbeing. She seems overall more confident in herself and who she is. Highly recommend the Strengthening Sisterhood program.”

“The girls loved their time at the sessions. They also loved showing me what they had created, and they were so proud. I feel like this program would be a huge benefit if happening in local schools and available for more young girls.”

“Since the first session I have noticed a shift in my daughter’s ability to name her emotions, come to conclusions about why she feels a certain way and be more open and honest when I try to help her unpack what’s going on inside. She is definitely more aware of other people’s actions also and I have noticed her practicing ways to let negative comments or actions wash over her and pass without becoming attached to it. She is also verbalising her want to “stand up for herself” more also in tricky situations. My daughter also has built an even stronger connection with other girls she attended the workshops with.”

“Things have been going really well sine the program. I feel like the communication portal between us is more open and we are enjoying our time together so much. My daughter has been struggling a little with new friendships at school, but she opened up to me and we were able to see things from their perspective together, which was so helpful. I’m coming to accept that there is a certain pace that she needs that doesn’t always match the pace of our family life. So, understanding that makes it easier for me to set realistic expectations and not get frustrated when she wants to do less. The kids loved it and I got so much from listening to the others share where they are at in their motherhood journey. Such a great program to be a part of.”

“Thank you for all your have done for our girls and us Nat. Thank you to the beautiful mummas for sharing space and having some challenging conversations. I really appreciated having that and it made lots of things clearer for me. I would love to do more and I’m sure my girls would too. Big love to you all.”

“Thank you, Nat, for providing a safe, nurturing, and beautiful program and space for our girls to grow, develop and learn. Also, for the mumma’s session! I wish we could do more of it. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed it and I have noticed her looking back through her journal and things she did, and even implementing some of the things you taught. It was an invaluable program and if there are any further sessions we would be very keen. We also loved meeting all the other wonderful girls and mummas.”
