Incorporating meditation into a teenage girl's routine can provide much needed balance and relief especially during those busy or overwhelming days.

These engaging events will provide invaluable opportunities for networking, mentorship, and hands-on learning, all tailored to empower underrepresented teenage girls. By fostering confidence, leadership, and a sense of belonging, participants will not only excel in their studies but also become influential change-makers in their communities.
