Coaching is a process that empowers individuals and groups to gain greater awareness of what is happening internally, make choices, take action, and cultivate strong connections to others. This
toolkit of forty-eight activities was designed by youth development specialists and professional coaches for young people striving to see themselves as Creative, Resourceful and Whole. Young people are all too often told what to do, instead of being asked a powerful question to support their own analysis, reflection and choice-making. Ultimately each of us wants to live a life that we design ourselves, grounded in our own core values, wrapped in our unique sense of identity, and fueled by our own dreams and visions. The activities in this box will support youth through transitions and build the skills of abstract thinking, situation-analysis, creative problem solving, goal setting, and intrinsic motivation for long-term sustainable change.
Section 1 -Claiming Your Essence offers activities to support participants to unleash their inner flavor, personality and core values.
Section 2 -Getting to the Core offers activities to surface values, needs and support systems.
Section 3 -Conversations with my Future Self offers activities for youth to make intentional choices about who they are becoming.
