To kick off the Moxie Girl Goal of the Day daily challenges, we’re starting with one that we deem as a foundational healthy girl-building goal: Write 5 positive words that describe you!

Why did we pick this one?

The stories we tell ourselves about who we are define how we show up in the world every day. We want to spur conversations with Moxie Girls and their support networks (parents, guardians, community) about the power of positive self-talk.

This goal helps Moxie Girls identify and select positive words that are intentional, uplifting and unique to the Moxie Girl. We’re exposed to 4,000 marketing messages each day, not including the conversations with friends, family and community. It can be easy to come into contact with words, images, or messages that can tear a Moxie Girl down or tell her that she’s not good enough. Each of us has the power to choose to be positive and start to see ourselves through a lens that we create and one that we can control.

Through this goal of the day, we are empowering Moxie Girls to carve out their own story! 💪 👸🏽👸🏻👸🏾🦄

“I can’t think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.” ­–Emma Stone
