Real conversations with your students.
"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...?"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"I want girls to like me"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"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 like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"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."
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"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."
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"Why do I feel the need to hide who I really am from my friends? I end up resenting them because they're talking to the person I pretend to be, and it feels fake because I'm fake around them"
"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"
"I'll try to gain the courage to talk to someone irl, if not I'll come back to talk to you- it's easy to release over text honestly 😅"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"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)"
"How do I deal with stress?"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
"That's a good thought, everyone has something to contribute, sometimes it's just hard to see my part when others seem to have so much more to contribute than I do, I appreciate your help, this program is a really great idea!"
"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻♂️"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
