Join a community of moms committed to raising their daughters with intention.

The GOG Community

Our girls are growing up faster than ever in a world very different than the one that raised us. They’re inundated with negative messaging, but much earlier, with access to more mediums than our NKOTB-loving selves could ever fathom. Growing Our Girls (GOG) is a platform for moms inspired to build and maintain a thriving relationship with their daughters from elementary school-aged to tweens and teens. We provide:

  • regular opportunities for community connection and mother/daughter bonding,

  • the chance to hear from experts on topics that matter most to you,

  • and accessible, curated content and resources.

The GOG Experience

  • Supportive Connections.

    GOG takes the isolation out of raising daughters and growing up girl by building a community for moms and their daughters. We provide a safe space for honest introspection and genuine connection for moms and daughters alike, with access to:

    • monthly mom meet-ups,

    • organized mother/daughter excursions + activities,

    • and community service events.

  • Access to the Experts.

    Kristin Mouncastle, founder of GOG pairs her background in psychology, health and wellness to collaborate with and bring the experts to you. Receive access to our monthly speaker series featuring local professionals who address topics that mean the most to you and your daughters.

    From nutrition, friendships, body image, disordered eating, puberty, social media, mental health and everything in between, if it matters to you, it matters to us.

  • Empowered Parenting.

    Make sure to subscribe to our monthly newsletter and follow along on our blog, Instagram and Facebook to stay current on GOG’s top recommendations for relevant reads, podcasts, websites and articles for all things girl and more. Staying informed empowers you AND your daughters! Find something that would be good for the community to know about? Share it with us!
