Mentoring programs that inspire confidence and leadership
At Mrs Lanier Presents Girls Talk in Philadelphia, we support girls and young women ages 10 to 18 with foundational life skills, mental health awareness, and practical guidance to help them express themselves positively and thrive.
Our core mentoring tracks
Every girl faces distinct challenges at school, at home, and in her social community. Our targeted group workshops and interactive circles provide a safe space to unpack struggles, practice real-world communication, and build emotional resilience.
Essential life skills
Covering everyday essentials from personal hygiene and self-care to positive conflict resolution, decision-making, and navigating personal relationships.
Job readiness & leadership
Preparing young women for the future with workplace basics, teamwork, public speaking, and discovering practical paths to career success.
A safe space for authentic growth and sisterhood
We believe genuine transformation happens when girls are heard without judgment. Our circles pair participants who may not know each other, cultivating empathy, strong social skills, and mutual accountability that last well beyond each session.
Real talk in interactive circles
During our routine sessions, we tackle the matters that matter most to young women: school pressures, family life, self-worth, and hygiene questions. By pairing participants up to discuss real challenges, girls step out of their comfort zones, develop strong conversational tools, and form lifelong friendships rooted in mutual respect.
Real-world cultural exposure
Growth doesn't stop in the classroom. We take our mentees on outings, including fine dining experiences across Philadelphia, teaching proper etiquette, situational awareness, and the poise necessary to carry themselves with pride in any professional or formal setting.
