💡 Mommy & Ladybug “Dream Gap” Pledge🐞✨

What’s Holding Girls Back?

The research is clear: by first grade, many girls stop seeing themselves as "really, really smart." They start opting out of challenges, stepping back instead of stepping up. But it’s not because they lack talent—it’s because the world around them has been setting limits they never asked for.

Barbie's Dream Gap Project and studies from NYU show that girls thrive when they see strong role models, hear empowering messages, and have people who believe in them. That’s where we come in.

This is a parent-daughter (or mentor-mentee) commitment to challenging self-limiting beliefs and embracing your full potential. Expect an empowering, uplifting mantra with a touch of fun to keep it engaging for our ladybugs!

The Ladybug Community is going to tilt the world on its axis with all the confident energy our wings are creating.  Keep soaring ladybugs, we're in this together!🐞✨

P.S. When you've completed the pledge, 💡 Keep the Momentum Going!

To continue this empowering journey, consider using our guided Mommy and Me Journal or any of the many other non-guided journals in the Ladybug journal collection.  These journals are designed to inspire daily reflections, goal-setting, and creativity—perfect companions as you and your ladybug embrace your brilliance together.
