1-on-1 Life Coaching

Mentorship that builds confidence, clarity, and connection.

  • Today’s world is louder than ever. Teens (and adults, too) are constantly bombarded by countless voices on social and mass media, each with different opinions, perspectives, and experiences. For developing minds and growing hearts, this can feel overwhelming—sometimes even chaotic.

    In the middle of all that noise, trusted mentors make a difference. While they can’t control how fast someone matures or make decisions for them, mentors can share wisdom, support, encouragement, and positive influence.

    By introducing students to new experiences and sharing positive values, mentors can help young people avoid negative behaviors and achieve success.

  • Research shows that young people with mentors are more likely to thrive:

    • 59% of mentored teens earn better grades

    • 27% are less likely to begin using alcohol

    • 52% are less likely to skip school

    • Mentored youth are more likely to attend college, have healthier attitudes toward school, and grow in social, emotional, and personal confidence

    The presence of a mentor can be life-changing.

  • The You Matter Tour™ offers confidential one-on-one life coaching sessions with our trusted, trained Life Coaches. This program grew out of time spent with students during the pandemic, where conversations led to life-changing transformations in the way they saw themselves.

    Each confidential 50-minute session is tailored to meet you—whether student or adult—right where you are, addressing your unique questions and challenges. Sessions are offered in person at The Cure-Iron Mountain or virtually.

  • As Mentors and Life Coaches at Live Life Loud Resources, we seek to foster a holistic understanding of human dignity and human conditions. Every human being has innate dignity that justifies their place and space in this world—a dignity that stands on its own, independent of the conditions each person inevitably faces in life. We teach students not to objectify themselves or others by these conditions, but instead to affirm their existence through human dignity, while also equipping themselves with life skills to balance the mental, emotional, social, physical, and spiritual aspects of human living.
