59) Project Fearless and our future female leaders

Raising a child is one of the most fulfilling and transformative responsibilities we can take on, and for mothers of little girls, it’s about empowering them to believe that they can achieve anything. In today’s episode, Maren and Eva are joined by Sara from Project Fearless, an inspiring organization based in Amsterdam and Rotterdam that empowers girls aged 9-14 to break stereotypes, speak up, and make a lasting impact on the world.

Sara discusses how Project Fearless provides hands-on activities, builds confidence, and nurtures ambition, all while encouraging girls to explore their interests, push their boundaries, and find their voice. From physical activity to mental health and leadership development, Project Fearless aims to inspire young girls to take charge of their futures.

Even though Maren and Eva’s daughters are still young, they’re already looking forward to their girls joining the empowering programs offered by Project Fearless in the future!

Key Takeaways:

  • The importance of raising confident, empowered girls.

  • How Project Fearless helps young girls develop skills, confidence, and resilience.

  • The impact of empowering girls at a young age to break stereotypes and create change.

  • Insight into some of the upcoming courses and projects at Project Fearless.

Whether you're a mother, educator, or advocate, this episode offers valuable insights into fostering confidence, creativity, and ambition in young girls, setting them up to believe their dreams are limitless.
