As the school year winds down, the need for connection, guidance, and purpose doesn’t take a vacation—especially for our teens. Summer is a powerful window of opportunity to support their growth, nurture their creativity, and help them step into their next chapter with confidence.
That’s where these offerings come in.
This summer, I’m offering a series of intentional, empowering programs designed to keep teens inspired, supported, and seen—including teen mentoring, a transformational overnight experience under the stars, our innovative art program, AVibe, and parent coaching to navigate this journey alongside them.
Because summer isn’t just a break—it’s a chance to build them up.
SUMMER TEEN MENTORING: ONLINE or IN-PERSON
While summer can feel like a break, it’s actually a critical season to nurture your teen’s inner world. With the right support, they won’t just pass the time—they’ll grow through it. Mentoring can also still happen as you travel… the wonders of Zoom!
Why Summer Mentoring Matters:
• Keeps teens grounded in a time when they can feel adrift
• Builds confidence through consistent encouragement and achievable goals
• Fosters emotional awareness and self-reflection in a safe space
• Encourages positive decision-making and independence
• Creates a trusted connection outside of family and school
PARENTING FROM THE PULSE: JUNE 22nd – JULY 27th REGISTRATION IS OPEN!
This online course offers guidance and strategies for how to strengthen and read the pulse of your teen and nurture the relationship between you. Six Weeks of audios, practices, and live Zoom Calls that build connection, offer reflection, and give real tools to use and practice as you parent. A community develops where you come to realize you’re not alone.
Themes: Week One, “Coming Home to Yourself”; Week Two, “Adolescence”; Week Three, “Building Rapport”; Week Four, “Healthy Structures and Boundaries”; Week Five, “Managing Conflict”; Week Six, “The Big Picture”.
INTO THE NIGHT: An Overnight Experience For Teens on the New Moons of Summer
From 4pm – 4pm the following day, we gather to utilize the magic and mystery of the night and new moon. As darkness falls and veils thin, we will explore the places within us, where the seen and unseen meet. Through solo time, guided reflection, art, journaling, and inquiry we’ll journey to discover more of ourselves… quietly waiting to be seen.
AVibe: An Immersive Art Class For Teens Culminating in a Collaborative Showcase
Imagine a space where teens are able to create the art they’re most pulled towards around a particular theme and be showcased at the end of the summer in a gallery and collaborative performance event. Where they are allowed to free-flow in their own creative way and at the same time receive guidance and mentoring. Kelly Tisdel and Arno Boer come together to offer this new form of supportive experience where teens can exhale from the world, take a deep breath, and find their creative voice among peers.
We’ll begin towards the end of June. Please reach out to learn more!
