10 Confidence Coaching Activities for Girls That Build Self Worth and Bravery
Dec 09, 2025
Confidence coaching helps girls develop the skills, self belief, and inner strength they need to navigate friendship challenges, school pressures, and the ups and downs of growing up. But the real magic happens when your sessions feel interactive, meaningful, and girl centered.
These ten confidence coaching activities are simple, effective, and perfect for schools, mentoring groups, community programs, and girls circles. They help girls build self worth, practice bravery, understand themselves more clearly, and learn tools they can use every day.
Here are ten confidence coaching activities that truly work.
1. The Strengths Circle
Have each girl write down three strengths she feels proud of. Then invite the group to share additional strengths they see in her.
This activity boosts self awareness and helps girls recognize qualities they often overlook in themselves.
2. Brave Acts of the Week
Ask each girl to share one brave thing she did recently. It can be big or small, such as raising her hand in class, trying a new activity, or telling the truth during a hard conversation.
This normalizes bravery and helps girls celebrate courage in everyday moments.
3. The Confidence Journal
Give girls prompts like:
• What made you feel proud today
• What challenged you
• What did you learn about yourself
• What is one brave step you want to take this week
Journaling builds self reflection and strengthens their inner voice.
4. Confidence Statements Practice
Teach girls how to replace self doubt with supportive self talk. Provide examples like:
• I can figure this out
• My voice matters
• I am allowed to take up space
• I am learning and growing
Practice saying these statements out loud with strong, calm body language.
5. The Values Map
Help girls explore what matters most to them by mapping out their top values. These might include:
• kindness
• honesty
• independence
• creativity
• loyalty
• courage
When girls understand their values, they make choices that feel aligned with who they are.
6. The Boundary Builder
Give examples of real life situations and help girls come up with simple boundary statements such as:
• I need some space
• I do not like that
• I cannot do that today
• Please stop
Practicing boundaries builds confidence, safety, and self respect.
7. The Confidence Ladder
Invite girls to choose one goal and break it into five small, manageable steps. Each step becomes a rung on their confidence ladder. They move up the ladder as they complete each step.
This helps girls see progress clearly and reduces overwhelm.
8. Strength Based Affirmation Cards
Provide cardstock or pre designed templates and ask girls to create affirmation cards connected to their strengths. They can decorate them and keep them in their journal, locker, or backpack.
Visual tools like this help girls anchor into self worth.
9. Partner Coaching Conversations
Pair girls up and give them three coaching questions to ask each other, such as:
• What is something you want to get better at
• What makes you feel most confident
• What is something you want to try this week
Partner coaching builds connection, empathy, and communication skills.
10. The Bravery Breakthrough
Choose a simple challenge for the group to try together, like sharing a story, leading a warmup, or practicing a skill. These shared bravery moments create a supportive group culture and help girls step outside their comfort zone.
