A Shared Mission: Supporting and Advancing Women
By featuring Strong Women Lift Each Other Up on shelves nationwide, Target amplified a message centered on supporting and uplifting women. The book explores the mindset and behaviors that foster empowerment, while Girls Gone Strong’s education programs translate those values into practical coaching skills for professionals working with women.
The book shares the why and how of empowering women, while the GGS Academy provides the Certifications that turn that mission into action—educating coaches, trainers, and professionals to serve women in real, transformative ways.
From Book to Certification: The GGS Impact
Today, many of the students and grads who enroll in a Girls Gone Strong Certification also buy a copy of Strong Women Lift Each Other Up to help deepen their impact on the women they serve.
Across health, fitness, and coaching contexts, GGS certified professionals carry these principles into their work by:
- Coaching women through pregnancy and postpartum
- Supporting clients in perimenopause or menopause
- Helping women feel strong, confident, and empowered in every stage of life
GGS certified professionals carry forward the message and mission of the book in their daily work.
