Self-Empowering Workshop for Teens

It is well known that being a teenager is not the most glamorous age group to be in. Between hormones, parents, and friends all pulling one person in opposite directions, it is a pivotal time in a teen’s life. Luckily, local resident , is lending teens a helping hand with her self empowering teen workshops.

As a former adjunct writing professor at Brookdale Community College, Clapp would focus her writing seminars on life lessons. Through those seminars, students were forced to take a look at their current life and see where they wanted to be in the following years.

Now as a transition coach, Clapp takes those very same writing prompts and focuses them around teenage girls who may feel lost dealing with the pressures that come with high school.

“My goal is to share the tools that have helped me and many of the clients with whom I have worked over the years to create and incorporate strategies as well as tools on how to identify and achieve goals,” explained Clapp on her workshop Facebook page. 

Seats are filling up for the “Be Your Own Success Story (For Teenagers) — Live a Life with Purpose” workshop to be held on Wednesday, May 16 from 7 to 9 p.m. The workshop will be held at and costs $35 to attend. Price includes reading material, pizza and beverages.
