Do you have a tween between the ages of 8 and 12?
As parents, we know this is one of the hardest stages of adolescence. We all want to help our children feel empowered, confident, and fearless during this crucial time.
But let’s face it—it’s HARD!
With the fast-changing world of social media and outside influences, it’s easy for tweens to be overwhelmed by negative thoughts and self-doubt. As parents, we often wonder: How can we help them navigate these challenges?
Be part of the solution!
Join us for the EmpowerME: Tween Edition event—a unique empowerment experience combined with speakers, activities, and an exclusive portrait session by Avenue 9 Photography.

A Little About Me
Hi, I’m Erin! With over 20 years of experience in both portrait photography and coaching gymnastics, I bring a unique perspective to empowering young girls. As a mom to two tweens, I understand firsthand the importance of building confidence in girls at this crucial age.
As a former gymnast and a coach, I’ve witnessed how a growth mindset can transform skills and boost overall confidence with the guidance of some amazing coaches. It’s my passion to share these valuable lessons with other girls and young athletes, helping them strive for their best while feeling great about themselves!

Our Mission is to focus on:

BUILDING CONFIDENCE: Helping girls embrace who they are and believe in their abilities.
GOAL SETTING: Teaching girls how to set actionable goals that align with their passions.
GROWTH MINDSET: Encouraging resilience and learning from challenges.
GRATITUDE PRACTICE: Fostering an attitude of gratitude to enhance well-being and joy.
And SO much more!
