What do you do with a student who can’t imagine a future for themselves and says, “I don’t know”, when you ask them what they want for their future? We’ll tackle this question (and so many others) in the class!
"Having kids dream and visualize what they want in their future and set goals and develop a plan to get it is important for instilling hope. But, what happens when one decision undermines everything they wanted and were doing to get it – like the decision to vape, use alcohol, misuse opioids or engage in other risky behaviors? The research-based strategy introduced in this masterclass has kids envision a future for themselves and helps them see how risky behaviors can get in the way of what they want in that future."

A Note from Kathleen...
Have you ever had the opportunity to do something you knew was unsafe, illegal or just "plain wrong" and you didn't do it because you knew that it would jeopardize something much more important to you and you didn't want to risk losing it?
You and I can't take away the opportunities your kids will have to engage in risky behaviors, but one thing is for sure. We can give them their own personal reasons to walk away from the opportunities. That's what this masterclass is all about. Stick with me . . . I’ll show you how to do it.
