Coach Ambereen explains how girls start believing they're less smart than boys around age eight, shaped by cultural messages and missing female role models. She urges adults to be intentional role models who show children what's possible.
By the age of eight.
Having faith in something greater than (an Arabic word meaning to have faith).
And for those of you who don't know me, my name is Coach Ambreen. I show up here way too often to really just dive into some really interesting and challenging topics, to just educate myself first and foremost, but also share a message that may resonate with you, which I would love for you to just tell me about. So drop in the comments if anything from this message today resonates with you. So this campaign is ideally talking about this necessity for women to see inspiring role models and inspiring role models in the shape of other women. You see, there was a research study done which shows and reveals that by the age of eight, which is when their brain is, you know, pretty developed, women believe or girls believe that they are not as smart as boys. Yep, they already thinking. They already thinking about this from the age of eight on forward. So what have we done in our culture and our society to make girls believe that? What can we do to change that mentality? You know, whether it be a boy who doesn't believe that he's enough or a girl that doesn't believe that she's enough, what can we do? The key thing here, again, which you might see resonating well with across my other videos, is the sense of being a role model. When we put ourselves out there and become conscious role models, which means that we are doing things intentionally, knowing that somebody is watching many times, other boys, other girls, other teammates, other friends and family, regardless of who that is, when you realize that you are being a conscious role model, you start to believe that there's more for you. And for those of you who may already know, my coaching company is called Tawakkal Coaching, which basically means that I have faith you. And Tawakkal is an Arabic word which means having faith in something greater than. So when we are talking about how do we educate, how do we teach our children to know that they can become anybody that they want, they can dream big and that they can inspire other people. Well, we gotta be the ones playing the part first and foremost. So go ahead, share the.
