Being a girl can be hard - especially in a world of confusing messages. We wanted to jump onto today's episode to share some insights from years of raising our own two daughters, teaching others about raising girls, and the deeper needs all women have (young and old). Whether you are raising daughters or working with girls (of any age), this episode is for you. From anxiety and big emotions to changing bodies, healthy boundaries and more…we hope to give you some tools you can use today!
We are Jeff and Terra Mattson, a husband and wife team who co-founded Living Wholehearted, an professional counseling and executive development firm, and Courageous Girls, an online resource helping moms walk with their daughters at every stage of her growing years. We are the hosts of the weekly Living Wholehearted Podcast and the Dear Mattsons parenting advice series on Youtube. Jeff (MA ORGL) is an Organizational Development and Leadership Coach and Terra (LPC, LMFT) is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Executive Coach. As authors, speakers, and social-entrepreneurs, we have developed organizations that help leaders, like you, live and lead with integrity at work, home and in the community. We have each invested more than two decades in leadership coaching and trauma-informed therapy and have helped national organizations and churches navigate many difficult leadership crises from the ground up. Our professional experience and research have formed a unique perspective on the relationship between leadership, integrity and trauma. As parents of two teen daughters and twenty-plus years of marriage, we have skin in the game! Between our speaking, publishing, executive coaching, managing our team, our business and non-profit, we get what it’s like to juggle the many aspects of a complex life!
We hope Terra’s book, Courageous: Being Daughters Rooted in Grace, and our co-authored book, Shrinking the Integrity Gap: Between What Leaders Preach and Live (October 2020, David C Cook), will be an evergreen resource for you as you grow in bringing all of who you are before God and others.
