Oh the Inner Mean Girl… It’s that little voice that tells you you’re not good enough for something; can’t do something; not pretty enough; smart enough. You get it. It’s super judge-y and totally holds us back from being the best version of ourselves. We ALL have it, but what do we do about it? Especially on days where it’s SUPER loud. Check out the video because I’ve got your back.

It stinks when you’re excited about something and the people around you aren’t. Maybe you really like soccer practice but everyone else complains about the coach. Maybe you’re really excited about a class, but everyone is down on it. You can’t change other people, but you can help to make the situation better. Click the video to hear what to do when the people around you have a bad attitude.

There’s a big myth out there that most students love college right off the bat. If you’re still feeling iffy about the whole thing that’s totally normal. So many girls come home for the holidays freshman year feeling like they should have their friendships, classes, and relationships all figured out. That’s setting the bar way too high. Freshman year is a big transition. Check out the video to learn how to relax if you’re not in love with your college experience.

‘Tis the season of school dances! I heard so many stories of girls not having a good time at a dance because a boy didn’t ask them to dance or because they were rejected when they asked someone else. Check out the video below to see why your good time doesn’t depend on a boy and what to remember if someone doesn’t want to dance with you (because I’ve been there)!

If you’ve been in any of my groups lately I’ve been talking about how I say sorry ALL the time. In true Modern Mentor fashion, I asked myself, “why?” and figured out that it comes from wanting to be liked! Today I’m sharing why we need stop with the sorry.
