Kids Empowerment Academy Workshop

Confidence Meets Success: Tools for Confidence, Choices, and Success

Helping Your Child Thrive

Every child’s journey is shaped by their ability to believe in themselves. Confidence influences whether they actively pursue opportunities or hold back and watch from the sidelines. The good news? Confidence is not an innate quality that kids either have or don't have—it's a skill they can learn and strengthen. In this workshop series, your child will discover tools to build self-confidence, even in the face of challenges and setbacks.

Through interactive activities, discussions, and personal reflection, participants will:

• Gaining self-esteem and self-confidence to pursue their own goals
• Taking responsibility and learning how to make positive choices
• Build resilience by understanding how to bounce back from disappointments.

This first series is designed to equip children with practical skills they can use both now and in the future, laying the foundation for a confident and successful life.

Session 1: Building Self-ConfidenceUnderstanding self-confidence can be challenging for young children. In this session, we introduce the concept through the engaging story of Canville and Can’tville – A Tale of Two Towns. This story helps children grasp the power of an "I can" mindset and how their beliefs shape what they can achieve. By the end of this session, your child will have a solid foundation of what self-confidence is and why it's important.

Session 2: Shifting Limiting BeliefsChildren's achievements are deeply influenced by both their conscious and subconscious beliefs about themselves. In this session, we explore how to uncover negative beliefs and shift them into supportive ones that empower them to overcome disappointments. Using the story Who’s Flying Your Plane, children will learn how their thoughts shape their world. A fun, interactive paper airplane activity reinforces the lesson, showing them how they can "fly" toward success with the right mindset.
​
Session 3: Overcoming Fear and AnxietyFacing new experiences can naturally cause anxiety, but it doesn’t have to hold children back. In this session, we explore how to move through fear and build courage. First, the story Pathway to Success explains why anxiety is a normal response to something unfamiliar, and then we use Slaying Dragons to teach three common thought patterns that trigger fear. Children will also learn a five-step process to manage their anxiety and create courage as they face new challenges.

These workshops use the proven WISDOM System for Coaching Kids, to deliver life skills through storytelling, engaging discussions, and interactive experiences. Our hope is that your child will not only learn the mindset tools they need but also practice applying them in real-life situations, setting the stage for developing confidence and success.
