Life Coaches for Kids Use Coaching Stories and Activities to Help Kids Ages 6 – 12 Build Resilience and Coping Skills
We can’t give our children resilience, self-esteem, or confidence; however, we can help them develop it in themselves.

In a rare Surgeon General’s Advisory report, U.S. Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy warned that, “the challenges today’s generation of young people face are unprecedented…. And the effect these challenges have had on their mental health is devastating.” In the report, he also states that “in many cases they are treatable, and often preventable…and provides actionable recommendations.” Life coaching for kids is part of the mental health continuum for children that many people are not aware of, and certified coaches from Adventures in Wisdom have been helping children navigate the pandemic by teaching mindset skills for managing change, fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and more, as demonstrated in a recent panel discussion where life coaches shared how they have been supporting kids.
“Life coaching for kids is a critical part of the mental health continuum for our children by focusing on prevention – helping children develop resilience and coping skills, confidence, and self-esteem so that they can navigate uncertainty and change in their lives. We recently hosted a panel interview of five life coaches for kids, who shared how they’ve been helping kids manage the pandemic roller coaster. These coaches helped kids with challenges like managing anxiety and fear around illness, feeling angry and powerless, managing friendship changes due to restrictions at school, embracing self-responsibility for online learning, and more” said Renaye Thornborrow, founder of Adventures in Wisdom and leader of a worldwide movement to empower children through life coaching and mindset skills training.
