Real conversations with your students.

"All my friends watch tiktoks instead of doing hw and brag about it, it's like, high school culture to just procrastinate and brag about having bad grades and no sleep and everything and it doesn't click to me. But yeah I love my friends but I wish I could meet some that are more like me."

"thank you! i'm kinda stuck right now & i don't know what to do about this boy! i really like him & we've dated in the past but needed to break up to work on ourselves. we just recently decided to try again because obviously we still like & care for each other! but last night, i found out while we were broken up he did some bad things that he shouldn't have! he regrets it & says he was forced into it. at the end of the day you are responsible for the decision you make & no one can 'force' you🤷🏽‍♀️ i've been thinking about this all day & it makes me sick:( i know it shouldn't affect me this bad because we were broken up but i don't know if i can move past this! he's told me he is sorry SOO many times but it just hurts me:("

"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"

"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"

"I listened to your most recent podcast about confidence, and I thought it was epic.🤙 I had a question that's related to it about something I've been dealing with recently. I already typed it up to explain the situation, and it is very long haha. Is that alright...?"

"I love music, thank you! Thank you so much for ur help"

"How do I make a paper airplane?"

"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."

"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"

"I have a question, I have a friend who hasn't been making the best choices and so I've been trying to stop being friends with her how do I do that without hurting her feelings?"

"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"

"Soo, the other day I got into a really heated argument with my best friend's mom, because they kinda make my friend feel down. I went to confront her, but it turned into an argument. I said some things I'm not too proud of, and wrote her an apology note, but um. I still feel sick from what I said."

"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"

"I get bullied a lot"

"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"

"I've been feeling a bit stressed, I work full time. And also have been struggling to take out a motor I've bought from the junk yard."

"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"

"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."

"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"

"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"

"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"

"Idk, family life has gotten a little better for him, but his sisters make him feel worthless, and when his parents get after him, they yell at him so much, he feels like cutting. I always manage to make his feel better, but, I really just don't like his mom the most. She manipulates him to fo what she wants, and it just breaks him"

"I don't really have any hobbies. I just work a lot. I work at a mexican restaurant i've climbed before but i don't do it often. I don’t really have motivation to do anything lately."

"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"

"thank you, you too!!"

"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"

"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"

"well, the overbearing feeling that everyone around is making you feel like you aren't good enough, like you're not deserving of the same kind of love if you're different"

"Wowwww thats so cool!"

"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
