Coaching

Youth Resilience Life Coaching

As a young adult I constantly had this uncertainty of “Where am I going? What am I doing?” And I don’t want anybody else to go through that alone.

Stress & Anxiety

Have you ever felt that ringing sound in your ears, shortness of breath, unable to think?

Relationship Struggles

How you ever felt that you can't leave, or you feel left out or someone Is not understanding you?

Work vs Fun Balance

Have you ever felt there is always a need for productivity and not enough time for fun?

Confidence & Personal Growth

Are you questioning yourself and your worth? Questioning whether you can do this?

Career

Where should I work? Should I have studied this? Did I make the wrong decision? Am happy with what I am doing?

Goal Setting & Motivation

The to-do list that never gets done, the goal that seems so far away that the motivation which has disappeared.

Small Business Guidance

I have an idea, what's next?

Procrastination & Focus

Have you ever started doing a task and a quick scroll on SM made you lose focus for a good 2 hours?

A Safe Space

Have you ever felt unsure about something that you don't want to share with anyone?

Parent & Guardian Coaching

Have you ever said “I don’t know what else to do?”

Parenting can feel tough at times. Maybe you notice a growing gap between you and your child, or it seems like they’re more focused on their screens than engaging with you. 

I have been a teacher for over 10 years, talking to parents of teens and young adults to find the best solution for their relationship. Helping them see things from another perspective on both sides.

Effective Communication & Emotional Support

How to communicate openly and actively listen while also offering emotional support to your children. It helps guardians understand how to foster trust, recognise emotional cues, and provide empathy, ensuring they can be a source of both guidance and emotional resilience for their children.

Setting Boundaries, Independence & Managing Expectations

Finding the balance between offering support and allowing your children the space to grow. These sessions will be about setting healthy boundaries, encouraging independence, and managing realistic expectations around academics, careers and personal goals, all while reducing undue pressure.

Building Self-Esteem, Navigating Technology, & Social Media

The how-to we all want: how to build your child’s self-worth and confidence while understanding and guiding them through the challenges of the digital age that you did not grow up in. Managing online pressures, and setting healthy boundaries around social media use.

Mentorship

Here, throughout the whole journey, whenever needed

There are moments in a child or teen’s life—whether in childhood, adolescence, or young adulthood—when they may not feel ready to open up to their parents or might have drifted from their friends. In fact, research shows that 81% of teens are more likely to approach a mentor than their parents when facing a mental health challenge.

That’s why I offer long-term, consistent mentoring—from primary school through to university and beyond. I become a trusted, stable adult presence in your child’s life, someone they can turn to when they need support, guidance, or just someone to talk to.

This kind of mentoring not only gives children emotional stability but also provides you, the parents with peace of mind, knowing that if your child isn’t ready to come to you just yet, they have someone reliable and caring to reach out to.

How Resilience Coaching Works

Understanding what you want

The journey of self-discovery and goal-setting is a continuous process, where we’ll explore who you are, your current environment. We’ll dive into your vision, goals, and what you want to focus on moving forward. My aim is to help you recognise your unique strengths, interests, values, and talents, so you can begin building the life you want, with a clear focus on what you're truly good at. This process is not limited to a single conversation; it’s about ongoing growth and understanding that allows you to align your actions with your true potential.

Habit Formation

In this process, we’ll focus on understanding your mindset and emotional responses, you’ll develop the resilience to bounce back from setbacks. By harnessing the power of neuroplasticity, your brain can adapt and rewire itself, making it easier to build new habits. We’ll look at both short and long-term goals, using simple techniques to shift your perspective and strengthen the habits that drive you forward. Each session will help you grow, whether continuing with existing goals or addressing new areas for improvement.

Build trust and accountability

In a space built on trust, you'll feel ready to face challenges head-on, knowing you have support every step of the way. Research shows that people are 65% more likely to achieve their goals when they have an accountability partner, and this number increases to 95% if they have regular check-ins. With consistent accountability, you’ll build resilience, stay committed to your goals, and move forward with confidence. I’m here to help you prioritise managing your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and self-care

Executing small tangible steps

By focusing on tangible, short-term actions within a tailored structure designed to fit your unique needs, you’ll not only strengthen your confidence but also start executing your goals with clarity and purpose. Each step will help you build momentum, turning challenges into manageable tasks and pushing you closer to your bigger vision. It’s about taking concrete actions to apply the skills and strategies you've learned—actively facing challenges, setting meaningful goals, and making decisions that align with your growth.

You don't have to have it all figured out to take the first step

Stress and anxiety are part of everyday life and can affect us at many different stages. They often show up in ways we don’t expect and can feel overwhelming. Here are just a few examples of what we focus on, with many more experiences that shape how we cope and grow.

  • Exam pressure & academic expectations

  • Uncertainty about the future

  • Social media & self-comparison

  • Financial stress & cost of living

  • Mental health struggles & burnout

Youth coaching helps individuals manage stress and anxiety by helping you understand what is going on in your brain at that moment, how your body is reacting. 

  • To put this in a more pragmatic manner, stress activates the amygdala and impairs the prefrontal cortex (google that), meaning there is an actual physical reaction to your body and nerves. 

 

Neuroplasticity works wonders with these aspects, forming new habits and elevating resilience so when that 1 % of life does hit you, that 99% reaction time becomes a autonomous.

Navigating relationships—whether with family, friends, peers, or in romantic relationships—can be challenging. Studies show that one in three young adults experiences relationship stress.

  • Emotional intelligence, communication skills, and self-awareness to create healthier connections
  • Using tools like attachment theory, I  guide individuals in understanding their relationship patterns, whether secure, anxious, or avoidant.
  • One of the most important aspects which has been lost through constant social media and lack of socialising is empathy; forming it, understanding it and showing it.

 

Relationships in all aspects are tough and constantly changing and having a third persons perspective can provide you with the clarity that is needed.

Young people, especially those under 30, often face overwhelming pressure to perform academically or within the workforce, achieving the best results, and securing a good job.

  • Studies show that 70% of university students report feeling stressed about their academic performance, 40% of high school students experience burnout, 60% of new entry workers report feeling anxious about their job performance and competition in the workplace leading to exhaustion.

Understanding time management, limits and boundaries is crucial, it’s not always about the promotion or the money, because if you burn-out or experience loneliness those materialistic things won’t help.

  • Focusing on rest, social activities, and avoiding burnout
  • Helping to create a balanced lifestyle that supports success and personal well-being.

Confidence and Self-esteem are not just connected to thinking you look good in that outfit, or if you’re likeable or if you can get that job, it is so much more than that.

  • Negative thought patterns which make us shy away from doing something we want, moving forward, fulfilling a goal and confidence in yourself.

As a youth resilience life coach, I help you build confidence and self-esteem, which are essential for success.

  • Research shows that 80% of young people struggle with low self-esteem, often leading to anxiety and depression.

Confidence can be tested in challenges like academic struggles, starting a new job, or relationships.

  • Social media also impacts self-esteem, as constant comparisons can leave young people feeling inadequate. 

A question that probably circulates your mind from 16 to even your late 40’s. And its ok! I remember when my career counsellor at school sat us down and spoke to us for 15 minutes, that was it and off we went. 

You may be feeling unsure about what to do, which route to take.

Helping you focus on what you want your future to look like, even if you’re unsure about your current job.

  • Remember, it’s okay to change paths—70% of young people will change careers at least once in the first 10 years.
  • It’s also fine to not know what to study at 18, as there are many options, like internships and work placements to explore.

I guide you through tools like mind mapping and help you build a strong CV whilst optimising your LinkedIn profile. We’ll also work on crafting an impactful elevator pitch to make a strong impression in networking situations.

Together, we’ll create a flexible plan that reflects your passions, helping you confidently navigate your career journey, whether you’re in school, university or working.

I love to-do lists myself, some pen to paper scribbling to really get all my thoughts out. That’s the first step, understanding your goals and with small baby steps getting closer to them them without feeling overwhelmed. 

  • 92% of people who set small tangible goals are more likely to achieve them

 It’s easy to feel lost without a clear plan isn’t it? I’ll work with you to break down big goals into smaller, actionable steps, turning them into tasks that you can tackle daily.

  • Time management—creating schedules that prioritise what matters most, so you stay on track. You won’t just talk about your goals, but actively work towards them with a solid plan in place. 
  • Habit formation using neuroplasticity and brain re-wiring to turn those negative habits into positive ones.

When people think about money or business, they often imagine corporate jobs or big investments. But a small business doesn’t always come from a high-paying job; sometimes, it starts with a small, simple idea—something you can build step-by-step.

Understanding the basics of managing your time, resources, and risks can be more valuable than just chasing profit. These skills are the foundation of every small, sustainable business.

  • 80% of entrepreneurs say their early failures helped shape their success. And around 50% of young entrepreneurs start their businesses while still in school.

Take Ben Francis, who started Gymshark while he was a student—he didn’t wait until everything was perfect. He just started. That’s key.

I’ve personally started three small businesses—each with their own mix of wins and setbacks. Here’s the truth: failing isn’t the end. It’s part of the process. The important thing is to fail with resilience, learn fast, and keep going.

If you’ve got a tiny business idea or even just a passion project, the next step isn’t about writing a 40-page business plan or getting an investor—it might just be talking to a first customer, setting up an Instagram page, or trying to make your first sale. Start small. Learn on the way. Build something that works for your life, not against it.

What is considered the focus for mental health in this day and age. Procrastination and lack of focus are challenges that affect many young adults today.

  • Our brains can only focus for about 8 seconds at a time, and constant distractions, like social media, can cause a 22% drop in productivity. This makes it harder to stay focused for long periods.

The key to overcoming procrastination is building good habits. Read about “The Battle: Limbic System vs. Prefrontal Cortex” -wiring your brain away from procrastination, increasing focus time, giving yourself challenges.

With practice and the right support, you can improve your focus and tackle procrastination so it doesn’t become a daily habit.

A safe space, that’s what this is, a space where you can express yourself freely, without fear of judgment or consequences. This is a place where you can explore your thoughts, ask difficult questions, and find answers without worry.

  • Many young people struggle to open up about their feelings—70% of teens report feeling that they can’t talk to their parents about what’s bothering them.

Holding in emotions or not sharing concerns can lead to anxiety, stress, and even depression. Whether you need to discuss something you’re uncomfortable talking about with a guardian, teacher, or friend, I’m here to listen and support you.

There are no wrong questions or answers in these sessions—just a space where you can be yourself, gain clarity, and take the next steps in your personal growth. Letting go of the fear of judgment is next step to moving forwar and finding solutions.
