Despite the genuine best efforts of teachers and school administrators, the reality seems to be that far too many kids are simply unprepared for the high level of self-management and tolerance for ambiguity that the 21st century requires.

  • classes are fun and entertaining - we don't like to be bored and we assume that you don't either!

  • groups meet for 4 hours once a week for 7 weeks. Yay, that sounds like a lot, but trust us, you'll want to keep coming back.

  • you'll enjoy the time you spend with the group

  • you'll be challenged, but on stuff that you actually care about getting better at

What we promise...

  • you'll leave the program feeling much more in control of your life and all the things you have to get done

  • you'll be heard. This one is huge for us: this program - and everything we do - isn't about us, it's about you. If something doesn't make sense to you or you don't see how to apply it in your life, we'll give you a different tool or approach to try. What matters most is not that you understand our approach, but tat we understand - and respond to - your needs.
