Building Healthy Relationships Starts Within

This month, we’re focusing on our third Wellbeing Pillar: helping students understand that healthy relationships begin within. Before they can build strong, positive connections with others, they first need to develop a strong, positive relationship with themselves.

Through self-awareness, students learn to understand their emotions, values, and boundaries. Through self-acceptance, they learn to embrace who they are—flaws and all. These two qualities are the foundation for meaningful, authentic relationships with others.

To bring this pillar to life, we invite you to watch this short intro video created by Etoile and Marcela. It’s a wonderful way to understand how we’re guiding your child toward self-awareness and self-acceptance.

Today’s session ended with a fun and meaningful activity: the Self-Acceptance Ball Toss. The girls shared things they appreciate about themselves, reinforcing the importance of self-love and confidence in a lighthearted, engaging way.

The takeaway? Positive relationships start with self-awareness and self-acceptance. By nurturing these qualities, students can build connections that are rooted in respect, understanding, and authenticity.

Lots of Love,
