Lausanne Mom proudly invites Leslie Kuster to Lausanne to give one of her well-known workshops:
The Whole Girl Approach: Raising Healthy Daughters in Mind Body and Spirit
To be a healthy daughter means that all aspects of a person – the body, the emotions, the mind and the spirit – need to flourish.
Our daughters will excel when we nurture them with what I call the Whole Girl Approach. Raising a healthy daughter means that all of her thrives, not just her body and mind, but also her spiritual and emotional needs as well.

- Healthy Eating
- Physical Activity

What parents say about “Raising Healthy Daughters in Mind Body Spirit”
This was brilliant. I would like to say a big thank you to the presenter – although my daughter is still young, the sound guidelines and tips and tricks provided should assist me is helping my daughter through the turbulent teen years in a more positive and healthy way. What more could I have hoped for from a course. I would take this again and would recommend it to all people with daughters.
This workshop was very beneficial and especially gave some great, concrete and practical ideas for raising ‘healthy daughters’. The highlight for me was definitely being given the very specific ideas to try at home/in conversation and the ‘areas’ to think about. Leslie seems to have a lot of helpful information and knowledge, as well as sincere caring about the holistic health of our girls. I really appreciate her giving her time to help educate us. Great workshop!
I really enjoyed the class on raising daughters. I would go again and I would recommend it to a friend. I only wish it was longer or even a series because there was so much information, that I would have liked to have had more time to discuss. I was happy to get two hours, but it made me hunger for more!
Loved it. Great summary of issues and then practical ways to deal with these issues. Leslie is very engaging and spoke well.
Very interesting, insightful, well presented. Good level of interaction. Excellent speaker with so much empathy.
I enjoyed it and it was very interesting. I have two daughters and will be definitely going home and sharing a lot of what I learned.
Very invigorating, it made me feel good and I left with a feeling that I can do this –Raise a healthy daughter.
Very well presented and structured. I like the combination of theories and anecdotes/statistics, and some practical solutions. I am glad I came.
Very good workshop with a lot of tips and concrete ideas of how to raise our daughters.
It is so good to hear that other Moms have the same issues.
Very inspiring!
