About and Starting the Series: Questions & Answers
Question:
Can I purchase the participant guide just for my daughter without the facilitator guide?
Answer:
Yes. The participant guide can be purchased and used on its own. However, the facilitator guide provides additional support, including deeper explanations, discussion guidance, activity tips, safety notes, and suggested responses to common questions. Many parents find the facilitator guide helpful for reinforcing lessons, leading conversations at home, and getting the most out of each session.
Question:
What ages is the guide recommended for?
Answer:
The guide is recommended for girls ages 12–17. Content is written to be age-appropriate, respectful, and easy to understand, while still addressing real-life situations teens face today.
Younger teens (ages 12–14) benefit most when the guide is used with a parent, guardian, or facilitator for discussion and support. Older teens (ages 15–17) can work through the guide more independently, with check-ins as needed.
Parents and facilitators are encouraged to review the material and adjust pacing or discussion depth based on the teen’s maturity level and individual needs.

Question: What is this series about?
LTAM (Let’s Talk About Me) is a values-first, prevention-focused empowerment and safety education, researched informed series designed to strengthen self-awareness, decision-making, and protective skills in adolescent girls. Each session intentionally builds upon the previous one, moving from internal identity development to external safety skills, ensuring girls are prepared emotionally, mentally, and practically.
Unlike traditional programs that begin with fear-based warnings or reactive behaviors, LTAM starts at the root, identity, self-worth, and internal decision-making. Girls learn how valuing themselves influences the choices they make, the boundaries they set, and the situations they avoid.
Through age-appropriate lessons, real-life scenarios, guided discussions, and practical skill-building activities, LTAM equips girls with tools for situational awareness, assertive communication, boundary-setting, emotional regulation, and help-seeking behaviors. The curriculum addresses both offline and online environments, including peer pressure, manipulation, grooming behaviors, bullying, and unsafe interactions.
