Equipping Tomorrow’s Leaders Today.

Students need more than academics to succeed — they need leadership, resilience, and emotional intelligence. That’s where State of Becoming comes in.

Learning that moves and lasts.

Our youth programs go beyond academics, helping students build resilience, confidence, and leadership through engaging, heart-led experiences. From role-plays to reflection challenges, students practice the emotional and practical skills they’ll need to thrive—not just in school, but in life.

Building Skills That Last Beyond the Classroom

Young people today face challenges that can’t be solved with academics alone. I design programs that strengthen leadership, build resilience, and grow emotional intelligence — equipping students not just for school, but for life.

Growth Pathways:

Youth Mindset Labs

Weekly sessions that teach leadership, self-awareness, and growth mindset. Hands-on, interactive, and practical for real-world challenges.

School & Learning Center Programs

Tailored workshops and semester-long curricula. Designed to integrate with existing classroom and enrichment programs.

Leadership Launchpad + Becoming Circles
A focused program for middle and high school students to practice leadership, teamwork, and emotional intelligence. Designed to help students launch with confidence into school, community, and future opportunities.

Juvenile Justice Programs (JDC)

Structured reflection tools for critical thinking and emotional fluency. Builds resilience and responsibility in youth navigating the justice system.

Curriculum Licensing & Family Sessions

Ready-to-use lesson plans and workbooks. Optional parent/family workshops to reinforce learning at home.

Supporting Educators Too

Students thrive when teachers are supported. I partner with educators to strengthen classroom dynamics, reduce burnout, and build resilience — giving teachers the tools they need to lead with clarity and confidence.

Examples of Support:

  • Workshops on classroom communication and student connection

  • Mindset and resilience sessions for teacher wellness

  • Practical strategies for preventing burnout and sustaining joy in teaching

The Arc of the Experience

Engage

Students and educators are invited into interactive, practical sessions that go beyond lectures. Everyone has a voice, and participation is active.


Equip

Through leadership practices, resilience training, and emotional intelligence tools, participants gain strategies they can apply immediately — in class, at home, and in the community.


Empower

Students walk away with confidence to lead and make better choices. Teachers leave with fresh energy, stronger classroom strategies, and renewed joy in their work.

Growth doesn’t happen overnight — it builds step by step. Each program is designed to take students (and teachers) through a journey that sparks engagement, equips them with tools, and empowers lasting change.

What People Experience

Educators and students alike describe these programs as:

  • Engaging — students are active, not passive, and teachers feel renewed energy in their classrooms.

  • Practical — tools can be applied right away, from student leadership skills to teacher wellness strategies.

  • Empowering — youth step into leadership roles, and educators regain confidence and joy in their teaching.
