Teen Esteem Council Podcast

The topic of today's podcast comes from an article in the American Profile. The article looks at what has happened to girl sports since Title Nine was passed forty years ago. Many girls have had an opportunity to play sports that they may not have otherwise played. Through coaching girls basketball, I have seen what sports can do for a teen's self esteem. I've seen girls make tremendous progress physically and emotionally through working hard and being part of a team. Those benefits are not limited to sports though. There are many activities that have similar benefits. Cara is part of the volleyball team at her school. She discusses some of the benefits that she has seen from her experience. Cara and Chantel have both been involved in theater and they discuss what benefits can come from participating in that activity. They also share some tips on how to get involved in different activities if you want to.
