GBGentle and impactful coaching for clarity and self-care Indeed my coach Candy is gifted and has been a gift to me. As I enter the empty nest stage, there are some undefined paths and yet to be fulfilled dreams. The “Life Purpose Exercise” is fun and revealing. Candy guided me through the complexity of aspects and details covered in the wellbeing assessments to identify main areas to work on for better self care. With the SMART goals, I got to overcome the reluctance to start some new habits by taking small steps. After experiencing simplicity and calmness during the mindfulness exercises, now I have some quiet time almost everyday. Thank you Candy for your passion and your profession of whole person growth.

GBPositive Changes One thing we had been struggling with our son was how long it took him to finish his dinner, sometimes up to an hour… My son and I had recently finished the “Time Management” topic with Ms Heidi from Hoppity Learning. Through examples and discussions, we set a schedule and expectations of how long each task should take. For meal times, he tried his best and was able to follow his schedule to finish dinner fast (During the session, he let us know that he needed 45 mins, but he ended up finishing eating within 30 mins two weeks in a row!). We are extremely proud of our son who shares his thoughts with us, expresses his needs, and becomes self-motivated to follow his schedule. - Joanne and Jacky or J. Wan's family

GBI found the class very helpful I found the class very helpful. I discovered from the class that most parents are dealing with similar issues with their children, and so my issues are not unique. and it helped a lot to learn in class how a child grows and matures in his/her capabilities over the years, and thus helps me to set up correct expectations. More importantly, the class offered practical tips in how to be a teacher of my kid, how to deal with the issues and how to improve my communications/relationships with my kid. Thumbs up!

GBInfluential Health & Wellness Coaching for Kids and Parents! Before taking the sessions about a year ago, my daughter was very unclear about her schedule and did not express her feelings and thoughts often. After taking the sessions to learn the skills on Empathy, Assertiveness, Time Management, Set Goals and Plans, and all other skills, my daughter showed empathy to me during our last ski trip and took the initiative to unload items. In her school, other parents would tell me that my daughter raised her hands often to answer questions. She is confident and assertive. Now, she also knows her schedule and follows her time table well. Despite having daily schedules, she remembers the days for different activities and would double check if she has those activities or not during Spring Break. I would recommend for parents to join the parent-child coaching. It takes time and practice to see the change, but certainly the change will happen!

GBNext good thing to professional help Parenting a strong willed child can truly be tiring. At one point we even considered getting professional help; but our issues are so every-day and common that we couldn't justify the cost. Hoppity Learning is the next good thing available to us!
