🌟 A Tip for Building Resilience in Youth 🌟 According to the Search Institute, young people’s development is rooted in relationships and the most common factor in helping young people develop resilience is: having at least one stable, supportive relationship with an adult. 💡 This relationship provides the emotional support and encouragement needed to help youth overcome challenges, build self-confidence, and keep moving forward in the face of adversity. As mentors in the VOICE program, you are architects of resilience. By offering guidance, a listening ear, and a belief in their potential, you are making a lasting impact on the lives of the young people you mentor. Here are some ways resilience is built: ✅ Express Care – let mentees know they matter ✅ Provide Support – Help mentees complete tasks and achieve goals ✅ Expand Possibilities – Connect mentees to ideas, people and places that broaden their world ✅ Challenge Growth – Challenge mentees to learn and grow ✅ Share Power – Engage in an environment of respect, inclusion and collaboration As mentors, you’re helping your mentees check off all these boxes by providing that stable relationship that matters most. 🌱 🔑 Your support is the foundation they need to thrive - one session at a time. #MentorshipMatters #Resilience #YouthDevelopment #HopeInAction #VOICEProgram #SupportiveAdults #GrowthMindset

THANKFUL THURSDAY! What’s one thing you love about learning from each other?✨ Comment below 👇 and tag 4 friends who need this reminder! 💜 Did you know that learning in a community provides emotional support and encouragement from like-minded individuals who’ve faced similar challenges? It reduces feelings of isolation and burnout while enhancing mental health and well-being. When we learn together, we gain access to new perspectives, shared knowledge, and opportunities for growth. Communities inspire us to dream bigger, take action, and offer opportunities for: ✨ Identity Growth: Discover shared values, culture, and beliefs while exploring who you are. ✨ Lifelong Learning: Stay informed with trends, tools, and best practices. ✨ Mentorship Opportunities: Exchange insights and guidance, both as a mentor and mentee. I love this quote from Benjamin Franklin: "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn." 💜 Repeat this mantra with me: “I am so happy, grateful, and filled with joy now that I have a community to learn from.” 🌟 Shared spaces—whether physical or virtual—are where connection, collaboration, and collective learning thrive. 🌟 Ready to connect with Empowered Moms like you today? 🌟 Comment "COMMUNITY" now, and I’ll send you the link! 💜 #thankfulthursday #EmpoweredLearning #CommunitySupport #Belonging #normaissa #daretobloomcoaching #blossomintoyourgreatness #rediscoveryourself #EmpoweredMoms #Entrepreneurship #EntrepreneurMoms #WorkingMoms #MomsInBusiness #BuildingDreamsAndFamilies #BalancingMotherhoodAndBusiness #Mindset #Mindfulness #Motivation #PositiveThoughts #PositiveMindset #FollowYourBliss #HealthyMindandBody #WellnessJourney #Innerpeace #Alignment #moms #momsofteens #spiritualmoms #momsoflinkedin #momsandsmamas

A Teen’s Journey: Finding Confidence and Purpose. A few months ago, I started coaching a teenager. who was struggling with self-doubt and battling peer pressure. She was bright, full of potential, but she didn’t see it in herself. Every setback made her withdraw further, We began with small steps, talking about her fears, setting tiny, achievable goals, and celebrating every win, no matter how small. Gradually, I saw the spark in her return. Fast forward to today, and she’s now a team leader and even mentoring younger students. Her confidence has grown, and so has her belief in her ability to achieve great things. Moments like these remind me why I do what I do. Teens need someone to believe in them and help them navigate life’s challenges. Sometimes, they just need a safe space to rediscover their strengths. Are you looking for ways to support and empower your teen? Let’s connect and explore how coaching can make a difference in their journey. #TeenCoach #EmpoweringYouth #ConfidenceBuilding #PositiveParenting #boostyourprofilevisibilitywith_omowumi #Day16

🌟 You'd think teenagers don't have problems, right? 🌟 I have a superpower: the ability to find the amazing qualities in every person, in every teenager who hasn't yet discovered their potential. These days, as a Youth Captain at GYLS by Tony Robbins in San Diego, I interact with dozens of teenagers from all over the world, and each one faces emotional challenges: stress, anxiety, fear of failure, fear of what others will say, fear of embarrassment, and the list goes on. I know, some of you might say these are not real, especially if the teenager you know is an active person with extracurricular activities. But have you ever asked these students how much stress they experience daily? Emotions are the invisible force that drives our life, our day, our hours. Just as we take a shower to clean our body, how about taking an emotional shower? At Student Consulting, we understand these challenges. We know that when you're stressed, your brain slows down, making it harder to think clearly and achieve great results. That's why we invite you to join the STAR Self Leadership Program to gain a competitive edge for your age! 📅 The next group starts on September 3rd. Send an email to office@studentconsulting.ro and start drawing the life you dream of! #studyingabroad #GYLS #SelfLeadership #Teenagers #Emotions #Stress #Anxiety #BrightFuture

🌟 Unleash Your SuperPowers Workshop for Teens 🌟 Last weekend, I had an amazing time with a group of unique and dynamic teenagers at the Unleash Your SuperPowers for Teens Workshop 🎉 We dove deep into discovering their innate talents, natural abilities, and personalities. As a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and MBTI practitioner, it was an energizing experience to witness these incredible young people begin to embrace what makes them.... well them 😍 learn what naturally energizes vs. drains them, appreciate the differences of others, and learn how to begin using their talents & managing their personalities for success in different areas of their life, including academics & friendships! In my opinion, teenagers are often the most misunderstood, yet truly awesome individuals 😀 As they evolve into who they’re meant to be, it can be challenging—especially when their personalities or talents differ from their caregivers and nurturers. But when they get on the intentional journey towards unlocking their potential & unleashing their SuperPowers, the results are 🔥 🎯 Next workshop: October 30, 10 AM - 3 PM Limited seats available! Don’t miss out on this opportunity for your teen to begin the journey of unleashing their SuperPowers 💪🏽🤩 Registration link - https://bit.ly/uyspwft2024 🚀 Huge shoutout to my teenage buddies, their intentional parents + my entire support team who made this happen😍❤️🙏🏾 #UnleashYourSuperPowers #TeenWorkshop #SelfDiscovery #TeenPotential #EmpowerTeens #PersonalGrowth #UnlockingSuperPowers

When you’re creating something, where do you start? 🤔 Do you start at the end and reverse engineer it? Do you start in the middle and burn the candle 🕯️ at both ends? Or, do you start at the beginning and create a solid foundation? I’ve tried all 3 of these and I’ve found 2 of them work in specific ways. When we are working toward our ideal life, it’s important to picture what that looks 👀 like. I’ve made a perfect day itinerary to see it and feel what that would look like. I then ask myself, “what can I do now to make this perfect day happen?” Then I implement one small item to get me one step closer. I build the foundation to make that climb 🧗 easier. Building a foundation in life is so important for our youth. Imagine if you would have done that when you were younger. 💭 That’s where I come in. I help young men build the foundation of their life so they can keep moving forward. It’s something I wish I had when I was younger and even as an adult. My foundation: 🔷 Purpose 🔷 Goals 🔷 Habits 🔷 Routines 🔷 Accountability 🔷 Support That’s what I provide these young men to help them make the rest of their life, the best of their life. Who wants this in their life? 🙋🏻♂️ #mindset #youthdevelopment #coach

"When we treat barriers as challenges to conquer, we rise to the occasion." - Adam Grant, "Hidden Potential". For some people, seeing obstacles as challenges comes naturally. But is this an innate ability? Adam Grant cites a set of experiments with over 15,000 students recently conducted by psychologist Carol Dweck: "Nurturing a growth mindset among high schoolers boosts their grades only when their teachers recognize their potential and their schools have cultures of embracing challenges." In other words, support systems matter a lot - not only in the way we overcome life obstacles but also in the way we approach them. 🔖🔖 🔖 In my latest article, I am taking a deep dive into the support structures Adam Grant offers in his "Hidden Potential". You can read it at my blog now https://lnkd.in/g-GD9adB or on LinkedIn this Friday. --- Do you see the barriers life puts in front of you as challenges or signs you need to make a turn? #growthmindset #AdamGrant #HiddenPotential

Here are three essential traits that can help set children up for future success: 1. Resilience Life is full of challenges, and teaching children to bounce back from setbacks is key. Resilience helps them handle stress, adapt to changes, and see failures as learning opportunities. When they learn that perseverance often leads to improvement, they grow stronger and more confident with each experience. 2. Self-Discipline Learning to set goals, focus, and stay committed even when it’s hard builds the foundation for achieving dreams. Self-discipline teaches kids to delay gratification, manage time effectively, and stay on track. This trait is invaluable not only for academics but also for personal growth and success in any field they choose. 3. Empathy Empathy creates strong, positive relationships and an understanding of others' perspectives. It encourages teamwork, effective communication, and kindness. Children who learn empathy at an early age grow into compassionate leaders and are more likely to succeed in collaborative environments. These traits—resilience, self-discipline, and empathy—give kids the tools to succeed, adapt, and thrive in whatever life may bring! #oxnard #resilence #selfdiscipline #empathy
