Real conversations with your students.
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."
"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...?"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"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."
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"I lost my whole friend group of 4 years. I think that they were just so toxic. i wasn't invited to anything unless i texted them. i would leave with extreme anxiety and no one would ask me if i was ok. and they've all just changed since i met them. we don't have the same values or morals anymore"
"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"
"The bullying has been happening for a few weeks and I honestly don't know why. Me and another girl got a note directed towards me called me a f---ing retard and behind my back this kid called me an ugly a--hole. i try not to let it bother me though it's not super important cos (this sounds weird and far fetched ik) likeeeeeee why would he call me ugly unless he thought i have a higher opinion of myself then that, so he prolly knows i couldn't care less about his words like they hurt but i know he's verbally abused at home and i don't put up with it and he can't handle not having the right reactions from me."
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"Thank you for being here for the students, it's great to have a person to talk to. Here's a little expression of my gratitude in video form (the audio is a little quiet so turn up the volume a little)"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Sounds awesome!"
"I'm stressed with my grades still. Normally I have all A's but I have a C in math that I've been trying to get up but I don't get the unit I missed"
"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"I totally agree thanks!"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
