Our world is hyper-connected, increasingly globalized, and media-saturated. Life moves fast as families juggle jobs, child-rearing, education, and more. Nobody seems to have enough
downtime. Girls today want to be intentional in the ways in which they personally navigate the environment as they work to make the world a better place. They're committed to connecting their inner lives with an outer purpose. But given all the external forces at play in our culture, adopting a more personally fulfilling outlook can be a serious challenge.
At Hathaway Brown, we're committed to helping girls and young women leverage their talents and capabilities while working to find balance in their lives. In fact, a key component of the school's new strategic plan is to Promote Lives of Balance and Well-Being. To that end, after her talk on March 31, Dr. Steiner-Adair will stay on at HB on April 1 to spend time with faculty, staff, school administrators, and students to consult on such topics as the impact of technology on the young adult brain, social and emotional intelligence, and the development of girls and women. Dr. Steiner-Adair's passion for helping adults raise strong, savvy and resilient children extends to boys and girls from preschool through college. Her latest book, The Big Disconnect: Protecting Childhood and Family Relationships in the Digital Age (HarperCollins) examines the ways in which technology and media change how children learn and grow, and shows parents how to balance the benefits of tech while reducing the risks it poses at every stage of development. She also is the co-author of Full of Ourselves: A Wellness Program to Advance Girl Power, Health, And Leadership, which provides a well-researched and proven curriculum focused on girls' intellectual and emotional development.
