Tuesday, 27 June 2023, 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm AEDT

June Guest Speaker - Emma Argall on essential conversations with kids and teens

We're all increasingly aware that we need to be talking to young people about sex, consent, porn and a whole host of other things that sound pretty stressful, to be honest. These conversations, though necessary, seem incredibly complicated and very high-stakes. What if we don't feel equipped? How do we work out what we want to say? Isn’t it going to be super awkward? Emma has spent the last twenty years pushing through the awkward and grappling with these conundrums with the high school students she teaches and with younger kids in her own parenting. She is passionate about inspiring and empowering parents and significant adults to wade into these tricky spaces and have these essential conversations with the young people we love and care for.

At our June Greenhouse Gathering Emma will speak about how desperate the kids and teens in our lives are for us to overcome our discomfort and start having these conversations. She’ll provide some insights, suggest some ways in and help us talk through the obstacles and the rewards.

You’ll also have a chance to connect with other Christian women, enjoy some delicious food, and hear more about what The Greenhouse has to offer to women in different industries, workplaces, churches and stages of life. We’d love to have you join us!

Can’t make it in person? Join us online! We’d love you to share in the experience.
