For Yourself

Have you reflected back to when you were full of pimples and had too much energy to expend?

I'm having the time of my life helping teenagers gain more confidence, self-esteem and improving their lives through movement and mindset.

I keep thinking if I was my own 16 year old self back in the day, would I be proud of myself...?

I feel that when I look at my own CV, I would be buzzing to see that I was the person that I really needed when I was struggling.

Can you ask yourself, are you the person that you would like to look up to?

Also just for you around this time of year, I'm feeling festive and opening up 3 extra spots for my 90-Day 1:1 coaching program 'Teen Legends'.

It's for teens who want to gain confidence, self-esteem and remove insecurity through movement and mindset.?

This is an exclusive program that takes on teens who are struggling with motivation and confidence and want to achieve more in life and learn to love themselves.

As a parent, if you feel that you know someone who could benefit from this, DM me with 'TEEN LEGENDS' and I'll send you more details.

Do you ever feel ‘STUCK’ by a decision that leads down two different paths? One path that you know is ‘RIGHT’ for you but you worry about what others think.

The other.

The path you feel that everyone else wants you to take…

Yesterday I had this conversation with one of my teen legends.

He was lacking mental clarity about TWO different options.

When we started discussing it, I could tell he already knew what he wanted to do. He was just anxious about the possible consequences. If he continues down the original path, he would become increasingly uninspired, lack motivation and therefore probably stop altogether.

However, he felt it’s what his parent’s wanted him to do and therefore he wouldn’t get in ‘TROUBLE’ for not changing…

The other path, it was a big change, but one that gave him so much JOY and MOTIVATION to continue and to improve. It was more risky but ultimately had a greater reward. The only problem, he feared with others would think…

So what did I do?

I helped him gain mental clarity over his decision.

I REMINDED HIM THAT;

"YOU CAN ONLY FEEL ANXIOUS WHEN YOU ARE CONCENTRATING ON THE FUTURE AND NOT IN THE PRESENT MOMENT".

He can’t read anyone’s mind or even control their opinion. So therefore, he shouldn’t be trying to change it or worry about it.

But INSTEAD…

…focus on what path is true to him. And do you know what happened?

Today, his dad called me up out of the blue and thanked me for it.

He was not angry, or judgemental, but incredibly supportive. He was also very grateful that his son put his trust in me to make these decisions.?

It’s these moments I do what I do.

Teach your teen to become present and watch their anxiety disappear before your eyes.
