Self 101: The Class You Actually Need
A Coaching Program for Teens Who Feel Stuck, Lost, or Unsure About What Comes Next
Are you guided by your feelings?
If something feels good—getting good video game scores, getting likes on social media, hanging out with friends—you keep doing it. But if something feels hard—pushing yourself to do homework, helping out at home, sitting through a boring class—you avoid it. Sound familiar?
Here’s what you might not realize yet: your feelings aren’t random. They come from your thoughts.
In Self 101, you’ll learn where your thoughts come from, how they shape your daily life, and—most importantly—how to manage them.
What is it all about?
Do you ever just feel stuck? You sense the huge weight of your parents' expectations, but at the same time, you’re not even sure if that’s what you want. Instead of figuring it out, you just keep doing what others expect of you—while resentment quietly builds.
Maybe you do have big plans and want to achieve a lot, but you don’t know where to start. So you keep putting it off indefinitely, waiting until you feel more confident.
But the truth? Confidence doesn’t come first. Understanding what you want does.
I have no idea who I am.
You bounce between friend groups, hobbies, even different versions of yourself—trying to figure out where you actually fit. But just when you start to feel comfortable, that little voice creeps in…
"Who am I really? What if I’m just pretending?"
It’s exhausting, feeling like you have to keep switching things up just to find where you belong. But what if the real answer isn’t about fitting in—but finally understanding who you are?
I’m constantly overthinking and second-guessing myself.
Every decision feels like it could change everything. The pressure is intense—what if you make the wrong choice? What if you mess up your future?
So instead of deciding, you freeze. You overthink. And in the end, you do nothing at all.
I don’t feel like I’m good at anything.
You see other people who seem naturally confident, talented, and totally sure of themselves—while you’re stuck feeling meh at everything.
"What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I just figure it out?"
It’s frustrating. Like everyone else got some secret manual on how to be confident… except you.
I know I should be motivated, but I just… don’t feel like it.
You want to do better. You want to be more disciplined. But every time you try, it’s like you hit a wall.
And then the thoughts creep in… Am I just lazy? Is something wrong with me?
No matter how hard you push, it feels like you’re stuck in the same cycle—wanting more but never quite getting there.
I feel like I have to be perfect, but I don’t even know what that means
Parents, teachers, friends—everyone seems to have an opinion about who you should be.
And somewhere along the way, you’ve lost sight of who you actually are.
Sounds Familiar?
Most coaching programs give advice. Self 101 gives you a step-by-step process to actually figure yourself out.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about giving you the tools to finally feel in control of your life.
About Me
Hey, I’m Kate, a certified teen coach and someone who knows what it’s like to feel lost, overwhelmed, and unsure of who you are.
When I immigrated to a new country at the ripe age of 16, I felt completely lost. I didn’t know where I belonged, who I was supposed to be, or how to fit in. But you don’t have to move countries to feel that way. Sometimes, just switching friend groups, changing schools, or growing up can make you feel like you don’t even recognize yourself anymore.
At the time, I didn’t know how to deal with it, so I didn’t. I took the easy way out—I avoided, escaped, and numbed. Drugs, distractions, anything that kept me from facing the confusion. But eventually, I realized that if I actually wanted to live my life—not just exist—I had to choose me.
So I started from scratch. I rebuilt my relationship with myself, one decision at a time. It was slow. It was hard. But it changed everything.
And now, I am making it my mission to help you do the same—without having to go through the long, messy detours I did.
You don’t have to have it all figured out. But you do have to start. And I can’t wait to show you how.

You sign your teen up for sports, music, or tutoring because a coach helps them improve—so why not a coach for life? School teaches math, sports teach teamwork, but who teaches them how to handle stress, make decisions, and trust themselves? Self 101 gives them the tools to manage school, friendships, expectations, and their future with confidence—because this isn’t just another extracurricular, it’s a skillset for life.
