Her Table: Having “The Talk” with Healthy Futures of Texas

Having “The Talk”
Join For Her to learn more about how to talk to young people about changes in their body, expectations, relationships, sexual health, and healthcare. Many of us never had these conversations with a trusted adult when we were a pre-teen or teenager, and it could feel awkward to try to begin this conversation now. We want all parents, caregivers, and trusted adults for young people to feel prepared on beginning those steps, and to understand that it’s not just one “talk” but many conversations throughout life.
This workshop promises an engaging conversation, interactive activities, and take-away tips and things to practice after the session. Parents and trusted adults are the experts for their own child(ren), and we want to honor your experiences as we all share helpful information with the group. We cannot wait to share space with you all!
Presented in partnership with Healthy Futures of Texas
Healthy Futures of Texas (HFTX) is a statewide nonpartisan nonprofit organization that works to improve the well-being of young Texans through equitable access to sexual health education and resources. HFTX aims to advance informed decisions about sexual health for young people, their families, and communities.

Her Table: The Lioness Within with Jae Ricks

The Lioness Within
A lioness is an emblematic representation of strength, courage, and leadership. She reigns supreme as Queen of the Jungle – so don’t underestimate her influence. As powerful and capable leaders, women deserve respect from others and should not fear speaking up for themselves and standing up for what they believe in. As the lioness cares for her cubs, we should also take good care in caring for ourselves. Eating healthful foods, sleeping enough hours each night, and engaging in regular physical exercise are all vital parts of wellness; surrounding ourselves with positive people who support us is also beneficial; finding activities we enjoy that bring pleasure is another crucial component to overall well-being. Regaining our power can be challenging; it requires courage and resolve, but ultimately the rewards can be significant: living our lives on our terms allows us to become happier, healthier, and more successful individuals. Here are a few more ways you can become like a lioness:

Be confident. A lioness knows that she is the queen of the jungle, and she carries herself with confidence. We should do the same.
Be fierce. A lioness is not afraid to fight for what she believes in. We should be the same.
Be protective. A lioness fiercely protects her cubs. We should be protective of our loved ones and our dreams.
Be nurturing. A lioness is a nurturing mother. We should be nurturing to ourselves and to others

We’re honored to have Jennipha “Jae” Ricks facilitate this Her Table!

By developing an awareness of our own unconscious biases, assumptions, and triggers, we can begin to navigate conversations with greater clarity and empathy.
Discover how to harness the power of nonverbal cues, such as body language and tone of voice, to convey authenticity and build trust in your relationships. Learn to recognize and interpret the subtle cues that indicate the unspoken needs and desires of others, fostering a profound sense of connection and understanding.
Through practical exercises, insightful discussions, and the science of communication, you will acquire valuable tools and techniques to break through communication barriers and establish open, honest, and meaningful dialogues. Whether you seek to enhance your personal relationships, excel in your professional endeavors, or simply foster a more harmonious existence, this workshop will equip you with the skills to communicate mindfully and nurture thriving connections.
