Last week I read an article by Marlo Thomas on the Huffington Post website where she talked about the bullying problem we face in our society. She talked about the need for bystanders to take more action as well as for parents to talk to their kids more so they can...Did you know this one well-meaning action actually hurts your child’s self-esteem?

As parents we love to lavish praise on our children. Often we do so not just out of excitement at our child’s accomplishment, but also as a means to boost her confidence and self-esteem. How often have you said “You’re so smart” when your child did well on a test, or...Testimonials
One of the obstacles I’ve faced in my parenting is knowing for certain how to do it – what words to use when, what actions to take for discipline, and how soon. What I learned from the interview series is to really know your child, not to compare children to one another, and to always discipline in love. I thought the series was excellent!

I know I wouldn’t have gotten off zero without her being my cheerleader and asking those tough questions!
I reached to Jill because I related to her story and I was inspired by what she had built in her business. Her loving, gentle nudge brought me to make the difficult decision to invest in myself and my dream of doing something that filled me with passion and purpose that also gave me more time with my family. I know I wouldn’t have gotten off zero without her being my cheerleader and… Read more

I had the privilege of being a part of the I Shine Child Self-Esteem Bully Proof program. My daughter, at the time, was only 14 months. I was not sure how helpful it would be at such a young age, but I discovered that I was able to start with a healthy foundation for her right from the start.
Using Jill’s suggestions to encourage my daughter with what she was doing well, with clear language, such as, “You followed directions”, instead of my typical response, “Good girl”, helps my da… Read more

My daughter participated in the Powerful Girl Within Program earlier this year. This is a very important program for girls in their pre-teen years to learn skills for dealing with the pressures that face them in the years ahead. I wish I had something like this when I was her age. I’ve seen two long lasting behavior changes in my daughter in the months since the program. First, my daughter added a piece to our bedtime ritual where she shares with me something she’s grateful for. She does this ev… Read more

I am registered! When I made the payment I realized how grateful I am for this opportunity to learn how best to support my daughter. When I compare the cost of the class to what I have spent on her camps, classes, and clothes — all to make her happy, help her feel good about herself, connect with friends, feel like she fits in, etc., I realize what an excellent investment this is. The Powerful Girl Within Program is something that will long outlast a new outfit because she will wear it on the in… Read more

The Powerful Girl Within Program helped me review my look on self-esteem. I realized I needed to make peace within myself in order to be able to help my daughter see her own self-worth. In order to be a healthy role model, I realized I needed to be healthy in my thoughts first. The program helped define the real meaning of self-worth in our girl’s minds. It’s a wonderful program altogether.

In the I Shine Inner Wellness Curriculum, Jill Hope has created a resilience based educational curriculum to facilitate character building, self-esteem and self-regulation in children. This holistic program provides resources for parents as well. The nine modules are well organized in providing guidance, strategies, lesson plans and more for educators and facilitators. I will recommend the I Shine program without reservation.

With Jill’s guidance I was able to start on a path toward more work/life balance that hasn’t been there in a long time. Jill helped me with identifying my priorities, as well as setting up a realistic plan to cover all my business, family and personal needs on a regular basis. Jill offers a highly effective tool set and coaching skills to quickly clarify realistic options that fit your situation.

I really believe you have helped redirect our relationship along a much better pathway. I remember with gratitude how you really helped me to look at my son, Alex, and the way I was interacting with him, in a new light which I really believe has helped redirect our relationship along a much better pathway.

Jill’s coaching and time was so worth every penny, I got bigger “ah-ha’s” than I ever did in any counseling session or any other program I’ve done (and there have been many!) It’s so helpful to have someone to serve as a witness, who isn’t emotionally invested per se, someone who can help me see more clearly or help me see a new perspective that I just couldn’t get to all by myself. I have been waiting for years to find a coach/mentor I could work with that wouldn’t just hold my hand, but also … Read more
