Raising Strong Girls, Part 1 (Juliet Starrett)

Ask a question

As a company founded by three dudes, GMB might seem like a very male centric company. But about half our team is women. The three dudes are married. Two of us have daughters, so raising strong girls and women is something we actually care about deeply.

So we got in touch with one of the coolest, most successful and badass women we know: Juliet Starrett. She’s the CEO of TheReadyState.com, an attorney, and a champion athlete. She’s also a mother of two teen girls and has managed not to tear our all her hair, so she’s got a lot to say about parenting girls in today’s world.

Key Points:

• Relationships & Community: Participating in the community, modeling good relationships
• Social Media: There’s a thousand ways to do social media as a parent, it’s possible none of us are getting it quite right
• Technology, Self-Regulation, Sleep : Phones are like heroin, how to make a constrained environment
