🎨Designing Your Life - Program Purpose
Target group: Ages 10–18, equivalent to Year 6–13
Inspired by Stanford Life Design Lab & Powered by NLP Coaching
"Designing Your Life" is a transformative program developed from the Stanford Life Design Lab, combining Design Thinking with Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Coaching. Instead of letting students choose their paths under pressure from school, society, or family expectations, we provide them with a safe and guided space to:
- Discover their true identity, strengths, and passions
- Connect those passions with real-world opportunities and future possibilities
- Design their own life direction with clarity, confidence, and global impact
💡 The outcome: Students won't just think about their future — they will learn how to live it. Parents will gain peace of mind knowing their children are walking a path that truly aligns with who they are.
🎯 Why This Program Matters
Today, our children are under immense pressure to decide on their life paths—what subjects to study, which university to attend, or even what career to pursue—often before they truly know themselves.
Many parents worry that their children:
Critical Thinking Gap
Don't know how to think critically or make sound decisions
Wrong Path Risk
Might choose the wrong path, wasting time and opportunities
Emotional Decision Making
Will follow only emotions and risk their future
And the key questions for parents are:
👉 Do you truly understand what your child loves and wants?
👉 Are they ready to unleash their potential in a way that feels authentic to who they are?
👉 Do you truly understand what your child loves and wants?
👉 Are they ready to unleash their potential in a way that feels authentic to who they are?
👉 The truth is, young people need a safe space where they can explore, reflect, and design their own path.
