Coaching for teens in the age of AI.

We focus on deep, critical conversation that respects your teen's intelligence — whether the goal is using AI wisely, launching a project, or beating procrastination.

Founding-family rates while we launch: heavily reduced, with need‑based spots available.

What we work on

Three ways in.

Every engagement is one-on-one and starts with a discovery session. From there, it takes one of three shapes.

AI Fluency & Responsibility

Using AI in the wrong manner can undermine necessary learning in any subject. This coaching focuses on how to use AI as a supplemental tool, not one to completely offload your thinking.

  • A philosophy of thinking and learning
  • A real project, built end to end
  • A personal workflow that works for you
  • Practice on real things from your life, schoolwork included

Specific Goals

Specific goals are great! This is coaching for when there's a specific goal in mind. Whether it's learning a language, starting a business, or studying for a hard test, we've been there and can help.

  • Progress frameworks: time-boxing, breadcrumbing, and more
  • The highest-value work to reach the finish line, scary task first
  • Accountability built in: check-in texts between sessions
  • What's your motivation?

General Goals

Sometimes life is just hard. We've spent countless hours talking through procrastination, screen addiction, and perfectionism. We'd love to share what we've seen work.

  • A relatable coach: conversation, not lecture
  • Finding what works for you, not a one‑size‑fits‑all plan
  • Shared experience: you're not the first to face this
  • An actionable plan you can start this week

How it works

From first call to real momentum.

01

Parent consultation

Free, 30 minutes. You tell me about your teen; I explain exactly how coaching works. We both decide if it's a fit.

02

Meet-the-coach call

Your teen and I talk, mostly without you. Coaching only works if they choose it.

03

Discovery session

We map strengths, friction points, and how the week actually goes, then pick one 90-day goal your teen genuinely wants.

04

The weekly rhythm

Regular 1:1 sessions, anytime messaging in between, and a written summary to you after every session.

Pricing

Simple, and month to month.

Standard

$599/month

Sessions every other week. The maintenance pace most families step down to after the first 90 days.

Every plan includes

While we launch, founding families get these plans at a heavily reduced rate, and need-based spots are available. Ask in the parent consultation.

Your coach

Someone teens actually listen to.

I'm a software engineer working to improve tech literacy across government organizations in Colorado. My day job is making complicated technology make sense to people. I use AI every working day, professionally and responsibly. That's exactly what I teach.

Before that: a computer science degree with a leadership minor (3.9 GPA), a 35 on the ACT, summers spent as a camp counselor, and an Eagle Scout award. I've lived in Brazil long enough to hold my own in Portuguese. I'm 23: old enough to coach, young enough that teens don't tune me out.

FAQ

Fair questions.

Is this therapy?

No. Coaching is forward-looking: goals, habits, skills. If something comes up that calls for a licensed professional, I'll say so plainly and help you find one.

What if my teen doesn't want a coach?

Then I won't take them on. The meet-the-coach call exists so your teen can decide for themselves. Coaching imposed on a teenager doesn't work, and I don't sell it.

How do parents stay in the loop?

You get a written summary after every session and a monthly check-in. Summaries cover themes and commitments. I protect your teen's trust, and they always know what I share.

What does "responsible AI use" actually mean?

Using AI to learn faster and think better without outsourcing the thinking. Honest schoolwork, verification habits, and knowing when to close the laptop. Your teen finishes by writing their own AI code of conduct and presenting a project built by it.

How does the anytime messaging stay safe?

Everyone signs the communication policy up front: parents may review the channel at any time, and your teen knows that from day one. A background check is available on request.

Can we cancel?

Anytime, effective at the end of the billing month. No long-term contract.

Start with a conversation.

A free 30-minute call about your teen: what's going on, what "better" would look like, and whether this is the right fit. No pressure either way.
