Setting Healthy Boundaries, with Elizabeth Zeigler
“We need to work with our young people to help them understand what consent means.” (Elizabeth Zeigler)
Unfortunately, the statistics tell us why having the hard conversations with girls about consent and violations of personal space is vital: 1 in 5 middle school students have experienced unwanted sexual contact; 1 in 20 girls have changed schools due to sexual harrassment; 1 in 4 women have experienced some form of sexual violence before college. The reality is that by the time students finish their education, 81% will have experienced some type of sexual harassment. This is a conversation that we may not want to have, but girls NEED us to have it. This episode of The Connected Girl coaches adults how to be proactive, and it also offers guidance as to what to do if the girl in your life is feeling unsafe due to some sort of harassment.
Join host Trudy Hall as she learns from Elizabeth Zeigler, the former Executive Director of I Have The Right To, a nonprofit dedicated to being a hub for students, parents and educators as they search for resources and support to address sexual harrassment and sexual assault. Elizabeth, also the founder of Claremont, a coaching firm, is an experienced CEO who is committed to ensuring respectful cultures She believes that no one needs to be facing serious challenges without a network of support. This conversation is all about the criticality of girls respecting themselves as they confront challenges to the things that are most important to them—their feelings of safety, personal boundaries and their bodies. Hard and real for sure.
