What is ChatterGirls
The Changing the Chatter: Celebrating ChatterGirls program goes beyond the limits and boundaries of the normal public education system to assist young girls in developing life skills for becoming confident, strong young women.
Chattergirls is about Celebrating, Happy, Aspiring, Truthful, Thoughtful, Empowered, Responsible Girls. And we want to spread the CHATTER to more girls.
Alicia Marcos Birong, founder of Guided Choices, created this program based on her experience coaching young girls and boys over the years changing the way they look at the world and themselves. They’ve become more confident in their own lives as athletes, musicians, singers, and college graduates. They’ve reacted with confidence to life’s bullies, abusers, panic, and other destructive behavior after using her techniques and recordings.
Starting early with Alicia’s techniques can win the battle of low self-esteem, chatter, and confidence. There is a real benefit to parents in that they will be connecting with their daughter. They will be inspired by her development as she grows into her true self, and they will see her confidence and strengths emerge as her values become obvious. We welcome all girls to join us to build better self-esteem and new friendships!
Changing the Chatter: Celebrating ChatterGirls is a mobile program and is available to your school, church, girl scout, park district or other group.

Mission
A Word
From Our Founder
“I’m Alicia, the creative mind behind ChatterGirls and I want to officially welcome you to the virtual home for our program.
We recognize that our world is changing. The current world that our children are growing up in is very difficult. Here at ChatterGirls, we want girls to ignore the negative chatter and celebrate how unique they are now! The fact that you are here means you want to do the same.
No matter what situation adolescent girls come from, they have an opportunity to change the world in the future and take power of their life right now.
Welcome to ChatterGirls!”
