Bio
Elizabeth Campos Rajs
Amy Sluss is an amazingly talented speaker and leader. Whether her audience is a small group of mothers and their pre-teen daughters or a large group of more than 100 adults, Amy is warm, engaging and inspiring. Her authenticity touches her audience in a profoundly personal way. Amy is an expert on mother-daughter relationships, as well as the challenges and joys of being a woman today. Without fail, every presentation I’ve ever attended of Amy’s has been heartfelt, well-prepared and uplifting.
Meri McCoy-Thompson
Amy's mix of storytelling, science, nurturing, and fun, makes her a great speaker who really connects with women and girls of all ages. She has a passion for helping females navigate the difficult messages given by our culture. For the tween girl, she offers a mother/daughter class that can help girls (and their mothers) feel so much better about puberty. I have been part of many of these classes and it is so inspiring to see how much more relaxed the girls and women are and how much more connected they feel after just one workshop. I have also been part of many other workshops Amy has done celebrating teen girls and inspiring moms and older women. Amy recognizes the value of learning more about ourselves and connecting with one another. Everyone leaves the workshops with a huge smile.

Fabulous to Be Female offers mother-daughter experiences for girls (starting at age 9) and seminars for adult women. The focus is on self understanding and self acceptance, because a girl and a woman needs to be able to stand up tall before she can lean in. Girls learn about their bodies and become comfortable with who they are and how their body will change. They are grounded with solid information, connected to other girls and to adult women, and ultimately, empowered to "BE" who they are… Show more Fabulous to Be Female offers mother-daughter experiences for girls (starting at age 9) and seminars for adult women.
