Sandy Bassin on Empowering Teen Girls Through Early Intervention Programming, Mental Health Support, Intentional Social Media Use, and Purpose-Driven Mentorship
Manage episode 486423151 series 3597102
In this episode, I’m joined by Sandy Bassin, founder of Her Story Mentorship, a nonprofit mental health initiative dedicated to supporting the emotional well-being of teen girls. Sandy shares how her background in behavioral health and her personal journey in long-term recovery led her to create a space for early intervention, purpose-driven mentorship, and intentional social media use.
We dive into the role of purpose as a protective factor for mental health, the unique pressures today’s girls face, and how Her Story’s research-backed workshops are equipping them with the tools to thrive. With features in Oprah Magazine, Refinery29, and Meta, and collaborations with the Kind Campaign, the National Alliance for Eating Disorders, and the Clinton Global Initiative, Sandy is truly shaping the future for the next generation of strong, resilient young women.
This is a must-listen conversation for anyone passionate about prevention, empowerment, and showing up for our teen girls.
