Brave Minds Program Overview

The Brave Minds program is dedicated to fostering healthy discussions and equipping teens with the tools they need to navigate their unique challenges. Each session is designed to create a space for open conversation, connection, and emotional well-being.

Session Structure

Creating Safety & Connection
Our initial sessions focus on establishing a sense of safety within the group. We begin by sharing our own personal experiences and explaining the “why” behind Pretty Bold, helping participants feel connected and understood.

Session Focus Areas
Our sessions are structured around three core elements:

  • Check-In & Weekly Wins
    We start by checking in with each participant, discussing how their week has been. This includes sharing a “weekly win,” where everyone highlights something positive they’ve experienced or achieved. This practice is integral to developing a healthy mindset and challenging negative thoughts.

  • Educational Segment
    We explore a specific topic relevant to teen life, accompanied by an activity that introduces a tool or technique to support their well-being. This hands-on approach ensures the lessons are both engaging and practical.

  • Emotional Regulation & Relaxation
    Each session concludes with a focus on emotional regulation. Participants are guided through relaxation exercises, such as listening to calming music or experiencing a guided meditation that ties into the day’s discussion. This helps them leave the session feeling centered and at peace.
