Teen Life Skills Program - Self Led

This program is unique because it can be used as a pen and paper journal, or students can use the portal dashboard to follow along with the instructor's video topics.

This is a 10 week self-led coaching package designed to teach your teen responsibility and independence by placing them in the driver's seat of their own growth.

Our program ensures teens build discipline from internal motivation, not external pressure by empowering independent growth.

We provide a free downloadable PDF Ebook. Allowing permanent offline access, the entire program content, including all is available to the teen forever and can be accessed without an internet connection. Additionally, completing the printable worksheets by hand improves retention and focus.

These three main skills your teen will learn forms the foundation of our program: the Discipline Formula to create any plan, Habit Mechanics to execute it, and Energy Fundamentals to sustain it.

While the program is designed for self-led growth, each week features valuable video guided coaching from mentor Drew, who provides encouraging support, practical examples, and clear instruction on the core topics. No boring lectures, just complex ideas made simple. Additionally, mentorship from outside the family dynamic allows for an outside perspective.

The program uses a Discipline Check-In (DCI) at the beginning of every week to give teens a concrete, measurable score of their personal growth. Teens use the visual scores to prove to themselves their discipline has measurably increased, not just “felt” better.

Life skills for the real world.

1. What is the philosophy behind your program?

Our philosophy is built on the belief that discipline is the highest form of self-respect. We move away from the traditional idea of discipline as a consequence and instead view it as a toolkit for life.

By focusing on self-control, responsibility, and resilience, we help teens develop the maturity to make the right choices on their own. We don't just want them to follow rules; we want to give them the skills they need to navigate the complexities of adulthood with confidence.

2. How do you define "discipline" in your program?

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment. It is a three-part skill set that we teach through our self-led tools:
- Direction: Having the clarity to set a specific target.
- Dilgence: The "boring" work of staying focused on that target daily.
- Durability: The mental toughness to persevere when things get difficult or results aren't immediate.

We teach teens that discipline isn't a personality trait they are "born with"—it is a muscle they can build using our frameworks.

3. How is this different from traditional disciplinary approaches?

We shift the focus from "consequences" to "ownership." Traditional discipline often treats teens like they need to be managed; we treat them like they are ready to be trained. Instead of external pressure, we focus on:

Skill-Building: We don't just tell them to "be better"; we give them the daily frameworks to become better.

Growth Mindset: We teach them that mistakes are data points, not failures. This removes the fear of "getting in trouble" and replaces it with the desire to improve.

Self-Correction: By using Mentor Drew’s reflection tools, teens learn to identify their own missteps and course-correct before a parent even needs to step in.

4. What is the role of the parent in a self-led program?

Our goal is to transition your teen from "being managed" to "self-leading." To achieve this, we recommend a "Supportive Distance" approach:

The Teen’s Role: They are the CEO of their discipline. They own the tools, the tracking, and the results.

The Parent’s Role: You are the Consultant. You provide the environment for success and celebrate the wins, but you stay out of the daily "micromanagement."

Why this works: When a task is forced by parental authority, it often kills a teen’s internal motivation. By stepping back, you give them the space to feel the weight of their own choices—which is where true growth happens.

5. How do we measure success in a self-led program?

Success is measured by progress, not perfection. We teach our students to look at their habits the way a professional athlete looks at their stats:

Honest Evaluation: Through weekly self-assessments, students learn the skill of "radical honesty." They look at where they excelled and where they drifted without judgment.

The Consistency Metric: We aim for a 75% follow-through rate. Why? Because hitting 100% for two days and then quitting is a failure. Hitting 75% every week for a year is a life-changing transformation.

When a student hits the 75% mark, they have officially moved from "trying" to "doing."
