Did you know that studies show that by the age of 14, a girl’s confidence can drop by as much as 30%? This stark statistic motivates us daily to create moments where young women can reconnect with their inner strength and potential. Thank you to the team at Boston Scores for entrusting us with the opportunity to deliver this workshop and for joining in on our "power pose"—a simple yet powerful tool designed to help people tap into their resilience and confidence. Confidence isn’t just a fleeting feeling; it’s a skill that can be nurtured, one empowering session at a time. We are grateful for the chance to share, uplift, and inspire these young leaders!
Last week we got to expand on our partnership with Boston Scores - what started as 40 high school students in March, turned into an additional 82 students visiting campus last week! On Tuesday we hosted 52 middle school girls, in collaboration with The Center for Women and Business at Bentley University, E-Hub at Bentley University and First Generation department. The girls got a tour of campus by student-athletes, followed by 3 sessions on: women's empowerment (see superwoman pose), entrepreneurial activity and Bentley's commitment to First Generation students. The day concluded with a clinic from our women's soccer team. On Saturday, we hosted 30 high school boys & girls for a campus tour, watching the second half of the men's soccer game, a clinic hosted by the men's team and concluding the day watching the second half of our women's soccer team. Our goal is as clear as ever: empower the next generation of leaders through access and opportunity. We can't wait to keep building on this partnership #OneFalcon
