How My Life Coaching Helped a College Student Overcome Challenges and Thrive
---
The Challenge: A College Student in Crisis
When Katie and her husband discovered how much their son, Tanner, was struggling at college, they were taken aback. Tanner had been having a lot of fun, but this had come at a significant cost—he was missing classes, dropping courses, and dealing with the disruptions caused by the Covid break. It was a tough reality to face, and they knew he needed help beyond what they could provide.
Finding the Right Support: Enter Sharif
In their search for solutions, Katie and her husband came across me, Tanner initially resisted the idea of life coaching. However, everything changed once he met me. My approachable and authentic demeanor quickly won him over, setting the stage for a transformative journey.
Building a Foundation: Establishing Trust and Confidence
The initial meetings were crucial in building trust and setting the groundwork for success. I genuinely cared about Tanner’s well-being and took a personalized approach to his challenges. I didn’t just offer generic advice; I took the time to understand his unique challenges and aspirations.
"Once he met Sharif, he liked his vibe, and the rest is history," Katie recalls. My ability to connect on a personal level was instrumental in helping Tanner feel comfortable and open to the coaching process.
Developing Accountability: Turning Intentions into Actions
One of the key areas I focused on was helping Tanner develop a sense of accountability. Through regular coaching sessions, I provided the structure and support necessary to help him stay on track with his academic responsibilities. "Sharif has done so much for this kid, from telling him to get to class to always being there for him when he needed it," Katie shares.
My consistent encouragement and practical strategies helped Tanner transition from a place of avoidance to one of action. By setting clear goals and creating actionable plans, he began to see tangible improvements in his academic performance.
Boosting Confidence: Embracing Growth and Resilience
Beyond just academic success, I played a pivotal role in boosting Tanner’s confidence. Through our sessions, he learned to view challenges as opportunities for growth rather than insurmountable obstacles. My unwavering support, even outside the confines of our official contract, showed my genuine commitment to his success.
He became more confident in his abilities and more determined to succeed, Katie notes with pride. My life coaching instilled a sense of resilience and self-belief that extended beyond the classroom and into all areas of life.
The Results: A Remarkable Transformation
Today, Tanner is a testament to the power of life coaching. With my guidance, he has not only caught up academically but has also developed a newfound sense of purpose and direction. He approaches his studies and life with a level of focus and confidence that seemed unattainable just months before.
Reflecting on the journey, Katie expresses immense gratitude: "Sharif is the real deal and more." The transformation Tanner experienced under my life coaching is profound, highlighting the significant impact of having the right mentor and guide during challenging times.
Tanner utilized the skills I was able to teach him and has since graduated from College. On the day Tanner graduated, Tanner's mom sent me a picture of him holding his degree and stated “ This day could not have happened without you. Thank you for all you’ve done for Tanner.” A truly remarkable transformation.
