The mother daughter bond is extremely powerful and is one of the strongest connections two people can share. Having been a local teacher all of my life, I have watched a decline in women’s mental health, and especially in young women and girls. Sensational Girls Network was created to empower current and future generations of women. One of the biggest protective factors for a young woman’s mental health, is the positive connection with an adult they can talk to.
Mission: To help girls become strong and independent successful women who feel unconditional love & support, resulting in self acceptance, self belief and self care through a deeper connection with their mother, a trusted mentor & a support network.
Vision: SGN aims to create a support network for mothers and tween/teen daughters collectively and individually. SGN aims to help mothers and daughters strengthen their bond through creating an everlasting memory & better understanding of each other. SGN aims to build a strong foundation, help with harmony in the home, and form a brighter stronger future to cope with a challenging world. SGN provides 3 ways to help tweens and teens gain the support they need – mother daughter workshops, parenting workshops, and girl power workshops.
SGN is facilitated by Julie Vigor; local teacher, author, speaker & founder of mother daughter retreats. Julie has 3 teen/tweens of her own. Grandmothers also welcome to join in the fun for a special price!
“SGN was just perfect and definitely worth the investment.”
“SGN retreat was one of a kind bonding experience.”
“I had the benefit of learning to love myself and spending quality time with my Mum.”
