How WISDOM Coaching Works

Certified WISDOM Coaches help kids develop powerful mindset skills using:

• Coaching stories

 • Engaging questions

• Activities/Art projects

 • Proven STORY Coaching Process


 Stories help children see mindset skills in action. This enables kids to connect to their own thoughts and feelings and apply the skills to their own lives, with the support of their WISDOM Coach®. 

What's the WISDOM System and Story Coaching Process Look Like?

All of my programs are based on a proven coaching model called The WISDOM System for Coaching Kids™. What makes this model so powerful is that I use storytelling and experiences to help your child develop powerful mindset skills. *See the Spot Coaching worksheet below.


The System I use is called the WISDOM System for Coaching Kids and it uses the skill books from the Adventures in Wisdom Life Coaching Program for Kids Curriculum to help children achieve 6 areas of transformation in their lives.


WISDOM is an acronym for these areas of transformation! 


The AIW STORY Coaching System is a powerful framework designed to help children build mindset skills through storytelling, discussion, and hands-on activities. This five-step method transforms learning into an engaging and memorable experience. * See Story Coaching document.


This system is part of the Adventures in Wisdom™ approach, empowering kids to develop confidence, resilience, and emotional intelligence through fun and meaningful experiences.





Credibility matters. The Adventures in Wisdom curriculum has been implemented by certified coaches across the globe, backed by thousands of coaching sessions that have helped children develop confidence, resilience, self-leadership, and more. The program has even been endorsed by Jack Canfield, co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul® and America’s #1 Success Coach, further affirming its impact and quality. As a licensed and certified WISDOM Coach®, I bring both professional training and a proven methodology to ensure your child receives support that is consistent, reliable, and impactful.

5 Coaching Packages

*Contact us to customize

Did you know that how children feel about themselves is one of the biggest influences on both their happiness and what they will create in life?


Positive self-esteem isn’t something kids either have or don’t have—and it isn’t something parents can simply give them, no matter how much love and encouragement they provide.


The ability to feel good about themselves, even when things don’t go their way, is a skill children can learn and develop.


That’s why I created the “Creating Soaring Self-Esteem” Coaching Package. Through five engaging sessions—delivered in a one-on-one, small group, or workshop format—kids will develop powerful mindset skills that help them build confidence, resilience, and a healthy self-image that lasts.

Did you know that no matter how much parents love their children, they can’t make them believe in themselves or hand them self-confidence?


This matters because whether or not kids believe in themselves will shape who they are and what they create in their lives. Do they step forward and go for it, or do they hold back and sit on the sidelines?


Many kids think they must feel confident before trying something new. But the truth is, confidence comes after taking action—the fear doesn’t disappear first!


The good news is that confidence and courage are skills kids can learn. That’s exactly what my “Creating Confidence and Courage” Coaching Program is designed to do.


Through seven engaging sessions—delivered in a one-on-one, small group, or workshop format—kids will discover how to believe in themselves, even when things don’t go their way and even when success isn’t guaranteed.

Peer pressure is one of the toughest challenges kids face growing up, and it’s also one of the leading reasons they get into trouble. In today’s world of smartphones, social media, and the internet, mistakes can follow kids for a lifetime.


That’s why it’s so important for children to learn how to stand strong. In the “Standing Up to Peer Pressure” Coaching Package, kids will:

When kids face disappointments or setbacks, many don’t yet have the tools to bounce back. Too often, this leads to self-doubt, discouragement, or even giving up on themselves.


As a Certified Life Coach for Kids, I help children learn how to recognize limiting beliefs and shift them into empowering ones—building confidence, resilience, and a mindset for success.


Watch this quick 1-minute video to hear Adventures in Wisdom® founder Renaye Thornborrow share why teaching mindset skills to kids is more important now than ever—when asked by personal development leader Jack Canfield.



Stories are powerful teaching tools—especially for kids! That’s why, as a Certified WISDOM Coach®, I use stories to help children learn and remember essential mindset skills. As founder Renaye Thornborrow says, “Stories really Velcro the message to the brain!”


In this 3-minute video, Adventures in Wisdom® founder Renaye Thornborrow shares with Jack Canfield the five reasons why stories are so effective in helping kids build confidence, resilience, and a mindset for success.

Success” for children is more than getting a 4.0 grade point average or making a sports team - even though those things are very important especially if that's the child's goal.

 

True success for kids is is about helping them:

 

  •  Develop self-esteem from the inside out, based on who they are versus based on what they accomplish.
  • Learn how to stretch outside of their comfort zone and go for their goals.    Learn how to be self-leaders, to live with responsibility and to live with integrity so that they make good decisions whether they're by themselves or with their friends.
  •    Understand how to handle life's curveballs so, they can handle disappointments or mistakes, move through their fear and manage change.

 

In this video, Adventures in Wisdom founder, Renaye Thornborrow, describes how life coaching for kids helps kids achieve success by teaching kids essential mindset skills that will last a lifetime. 

Most people don’t realize that life coaching for kids isn’t just about achievement—it’s a powerful, proactive tool for supporting child mental wellness.


In this short video, Adventures in Wisdom® founder Renaye Thornborrow joins Jack Canfield to share how life coaching fits within the spectrum of child mental wellness, and why it’s so important for kids today.

As the founder of Heedway Corporate Training and Mind to Energy LLC, and a Certified WISDOM Coach®. More importantly, I’m a mom and grandmother who is passionate about helping kids thrive.


As a grandmother to three little girls, I know how much parents and grandparents want to give children every opportunity to grow up confident, resilient, and equipped for life. But I also know that love alone isn’t enough—kids need tools and skills to help them navigate challenges, believe in themselves, and reach their full potential.


That’s why I became a life coach for kids. Through the Adventures in Wisdom® Coaching Program, I guide children in developing powerful mindset skills that last a lifetime—skills like self-esteem, resilience, confidence, self-leadership, and courage.


I bring together my background in leadership, corporate training, and wellness to create a supportive, engaging, and fun coaching environment where kids can shine. Whether it’s through one-on-one coaching, group sessions, or workshops, I meet kids right where they are and help them grow into who they’re meant to be.


With joy and purpose,
 Cindy Webb
