mygogirl.com.au is a blog for mums to celebrate girls being girls.

Everyday our girls are faced with cliques, expectations, identity and belonging – navigating their way through life. It’s not just child’s play – they are learning skills that will last them for life. From the first sleep-over to friendship troubles in the school yard, these seemingly small, but so incredibly big, milestones shape who we are.

And what do we hope our girls will become?

Happy, healthy, confident, kind, brave individuals. Go Girls.

This site is for you to share, learn and discuss your own Go Girls. The gorgeous things they say and do, the problems you’re helping them work through, the issues facing all young girls today, and more.

Sure, there’s plenty of icky stuff that we could dwell on like poor role models and the influence of the media but we could also flip it around and focus on the positives.

And we should also take comfort in something that is often forgotten: it all starts here. They’ll be Go Girls because of us and the example we set.

So while you’re sharing your stories and news about your Go Girls, don’t forget about you.
