A Mighty Girl
This source is my favorite for its thoroughness. It has inspirational quotes from influential women, true stories about women from history and current events, lists of books about such women or featuring strong fictional female characters, and advice about how to address sensitive subjects concerning womanhood.
Beauty Redefined
Founded by twin sisters, this site lives up to its name: to redefine the standard of beauty and encourage women to love themselves and change their priorities. Its motto is "See more. Be more." It also contains resources on how to teach modesty in an unshameful way for those who believe in certain dress codes.
Fight the New Drug
Dear to my heart, this movement is attacking the incredibly prevalent and harmful pornography industry. It reveals through science and personal stories (no religion or politics) how porn kills love and what a real relationship should look like. It helps both men and women see each other and themselves as more than just sexual objects.
Improving Birth
As a woman, giving life is a wonderful and personal privilege, and the manner in which it happens should be dictated by us mothers. This organization is increasing awareness of and changing women's rights in birth so we can make informed choices, feel respected and empowered, and improve our and our babies' health. It is never too early to ingrain this into our children.
Darling Magazine
This magazine is about the art of being a woman and covers all aspects of womanhood. It focuses on inner beauty and personal development. It has stunning photography while keeping it real. You can read my more in-depth blog post about the magazine here.

I was just checking out "a mighty girl" two nights ago. So many fun resources on raising strong woman. My goal is going to be to raise feminine woman who don't necessarily subscribe to modern day stereotypes. Needs to be defined a bit bette
Ok. I'm def having technical difficulties. My main goal right now is to stay away from Disney channel and to be purposeful about my words.
So, when someone tells her she has a beautiful dress. Say thank you and then tell
them about how she's really been interested in jumping lately or coloring or speaking spanish or gymnastics. Moving convo from what she looks like to her personality traits that make her who she is. Also working on myself as a role model. So much to think about!
