Self Esteem issues are a huge problem for girls and women alike. It is through Dove and Kroger’s “Just us Girls” Campaign that they are helping to empower girls and women to be able to move beyond their self esteem issues. I admit that I have always had self esteem issues ever since I was little. I hope that down the road when I have a daughter that I will be able to show her what I have learned in my life.
I have learned that no matter what you think, or what one person might say about you, that there is that special person(s) out there who see you for what you are inside and out. The other thing that I have learned over the years is that no one is perfect inside and out. It is those little flaws and quirks that make you special. For instance, I hate the curve in my back and I am going to break the main rule I gave myself when I started this blog just for this post.
I couldn’t pick just one picture that really showed you just what the curve in my back does to me so, I took three and made a quick collage for you to look at that shows you the one thing that destroyed my self-esteem as a girl growing up. It is because of my self-esteem issues over the years that I am sharing Dove and Kroger’s partnership for #GirlsUnstoppable. Join in on the conversation online with me and other women!
How Kroger & Dove Help Boost Self Esteem
Kroger teamed up with Dove because every 6 in 10 girls have self esteem issues and right now there are proceeds for every Dove purchase is going to helping girls across the country reach their full potential. The proceeds are going to groups like The Boys And Girls Club, Girl Scouts (something I participated in for 12 years growing up), and Girls Inc.
Dove has a cool little Dove Self-Esteem Toolkit that you can download online for free. I downloaded mine and I love it. I suggest you download it as well. Start a conversation with your daughters and have a “Just us Girls” night! See what amazing things it could do for her self esteem. Once you have done this don’t forget to come back and share your story with everyone using the hashtag #GirlsUnstoppable.

i have had self esteem issues..i conquered them with help from friends,and family,and a counselor.
I’ve been overweight most of my life, but recently I’ve realized that I can do anything I set my mind to, and that weight shouldn’t be a factor. 🙂
I’ve had plastic surgery and realized that doesn’t heal it, only you can!
I think it’s so great that Dove and Kroger are doing this. It’s just the kind of positive outreach we need. Happy SITS day!
First, Happy SITS Day! I hope it is a great one for you! 🙂
Second, I think everyone, maybe especially girls, has self-esteem issues at one point in time or another and all throughout life. I know I do. I try to tell my kids, though, that they aren’t the only ones who struggle with feeling awkward or not enough – everyone does, including the most powerful and successful. It is part of life in a lot of ways. The most important thing is that we do our best and try to be our best and not worry about anyone else. Normally someone belittles or bullies out of jealousy or because someone is different, not because you are less or wrong. Learning how to be true to yourself, loyal to your beliefs and ideals, being honest and caring are the things that make a strong, beautiful person and that’s all that counts. 🙂
