Hi there. Melissa Grosz here, founder of It’s Easy to Be Me!, a company focused on giving teens the confidence and skills necessary to thrive as their authentic self.
Parents, have you ever wished you had more time to help your teen be confident in themselves and have a greater chance of success as an adult? Maybe you feel like there is so much to teach them and so little time. Or, maybe you feel like when you make the time your teen doesn’t absorb the nuggets of wisdom you are trying to impart and you are constantly looking for little clues to let you know that it is sinking in.
I can say me too to both of those struggles. I was a timid teen and I am now a reflective adult that not only wishes I would have been more confident as a teen but I also desire to make sure the feedback of this world does not rob my own children of precious time.
Since the day I became a mom I knew my mission in life was to help kids stay true to their authentic selves, but I knew that because of my own experiences. It was not until eight years later when my daughter had a particularly tough day at school that this mission was cemented for me.
On this tough day, my truly amazing little human, Bella, had gotten in trouble. She had a dispute with another class mate, which ended up in her friend telling her that she was “not going to be her friend any more.” The teacher got involved and sent the girls to the office. While in the office, the principle visited with them about school etiquette. Bella’s classmate was sent back to class and Bella was asked to visit with the school counselor, who proceeded to tell her how she is a natural leader and she should want to be friends with everyone.
When I picked Bella up that day, I ask her how her day was. Im telling you, I watched the light seep right out of this beautiful human as she began to explain the ‘incident’. I can’t even remember what it was now but I do remember thinking holy moly all of this for that.
Bella just received feedback from four people and I was about to be the fifth for one incident.
So, I created a framework for myself and my own children. It may have taken me until I was in my late twenties to come back around and honor my authentic self but for my children I can say that so far I don’t believe they have lost time being someone else. And I want that for all teens, all parents, and all humans!
Below you will see an option to begin utilizing the Summit Series, which allows teens to invest as little as 20 minutes per week, broken up into 10 minute sessions, to gain the insight and skills necessary to live a summit lifestyle.
What is a summit lifestyle you ask? It means having the skills to live at the highest levels through honoring and accepting that you are PURPOSEFUL you are POWERFUL, and you are YOU!
SUMMIT SERIES: Five courses that are structured in a way that allows a short curriculum video, usually five minutes or less, and a quick discussion item for you and your teen to apply the knowledge immediately. The content is structured in a way that you and your teen can have two regularly scheduled dates per week that will be intentional and impactful and short enough in duration that it doesn’t feel like a chore. As you can see from our logo, the first course, Authentic Conformist, is the foundation. Each additional course takes you a little further up the mountain to reach the Summit. These five courses will serve as a solid foundation to remove hurdles or at least make your teen more capable of clearing them so they can achieve summit living, where they have the basics skills and confidence necessary to succeed as their authentic self. All together the series will give you approximately 18 months of intentional time with your teen. We approach topics such as authenticity, feedback, investing in key resources, social networks, experiences, creation, perspective, and more.
Metaphorically, we are all climbing a mountain. Sure, some of us are born a little higher up on the mountain and get to skip some of the hurdles and treacherous terrain but we are allstill climbing and we all still have the hurdles on our way up.
AUTHENTIC CONFORMIST COURSE: The first of five courses in the Summit Series that focuses on how to identify your authentic self and external factors that may impact our willingness to be authentic. This is a twelve week course in the date night format of approximately 5 minutes of curriculum with an associated discussion topic.
