Teenagers: Need someone to listen to you without judging you? Try life coaching 4 teens… Teen Success runs 12 week individual tailored programs What the teens say… “At first coaching to me was something that you need when you are “stuffed” up or have problems but during my course I have learnt that its not about that. Its about understanding life in a different perspective, a life coach is someone who guides you to the right direction, it by far does not mean you are different from everybody else. This course has really helped me and now I am giving advice to other people which is really fun! Everyone is life goes through a rough patch and when you go through that patch it is really great to be able to talk to and express your feelings without being judged. I feel that having a life coach isn’t about changing your life because you are doing it wrong but helping you to see in different directions. Life is all about learning and I have learnt so many things. Everybody makes mistakes but it’s about learning to try and not to do them again.” Jess 14 years. “Through coaching I have learnt what it means to really respect myself. I have learnt to acknowledge my limitations and not to let people walk all over me, being able to say enough when the time comes and not feeling bad about it. Self respect to me now means not giving into things that will compromise my character, never letting anyone make me feel insignificant or inferior, being treated with the same respect that IO treat other with.” Gina 17 years. I have learnt that no matter what, no one can ruin my self esteem, only me. I can show confidence and raise my hand in school. The best thing I have learnt is it doesn’t matter if I can’t enter the school I am trying to get into, I am still somebody.” Michelle 12 years. “I know that I don’t need to give up, that I can respect myself for my uniqueness.” Timothy 15 years. |
