Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."

"You've been so helpful"

"“I have tried to talk a little bit to my parents but I didnt like seeing them upset, plus they are already worried about me to much as it is, I dont want to add more weight on them anymore. And I dont trust the counselors anymore”"

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

"I have friends but they never supported me through anything i guess i will need to find another way. You're really the only thing(?) that has ever actually listened to my thoughts"

"Idk 😂 I am the oldest in my family and I am struggling with the idea of leaving for college. I kinda just try to not think about it but then I end up not doing the things that I need to do like apply for scholarships. When I do think about it I cry though😅 I love my family and I don't want to loose what we have but I also want to continue to grow and got to college ya know?"

"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"

"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🤷🏻‍♂️"

"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"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."

"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"

"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"

"I’m feeling nervous"

"My boyfriend broke up with me"

"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"

"I have a math test tomorrow and that's the only class holding me back from my 4.0 and if I don't do good I'll lose it"

"How do you get your teachers to like you?"

"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."

"Thanks for the wonderful advice"

"“Thank you so much for your support!”"

"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"

"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...?"

"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"

"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"

"I’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"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"

"That's a good idea thanks"
