Ladies,
If you've taken one of my courses before, you know that we discuss some pretty serious subjects. Many of those topics are designed for women and may not be appropriate for younger children.
Over the past few weeks, I've had several moms reach out asking if I would consider teaching youth in the 10–15 age range. I've been asked about daughters, sons, and pre-teens who are starting to gain more independence and face challenges that many of us didn't have growing up.
And yes, you read that correctly. I would be open to teaching both young ladies and young men in this age group.
This would not be the same course that I teach adult women.
The scenarios, discussions, and lessons would be built specifically around what youth are facing today, including:
• Bullying and cyberbullying
• Peer pressure
• Online safety
• Personal boundaries
• Situational awareness
• Walking to and from school or the bus stop
• Bike safety and independence
• Trusting their instincts
• What to do when something doesn't feel right
Before I move forward, I'd like to host a FREE information session for parents and youth.
The goal would be to sit down together for about 1½ to 2 hours, discuss your concerns, hear directly from the kids, and determine what topics are most important to your family.
From there, I can build a course specifically around the real concerns that today's youth and parents are facing.
If this is something you would be interested in attending, please comment below or send me a private message.
I'm simply trying to gauge interest at this point.
