Build Inner Confidence and Social/Emotional Wellness in Kids!
Do you know in your heart that your child is happiest when they have the courage and confidence to be their true self?
Do you wish they would follow their own, inner voice rather than listening to others?
Do you want your child to thrive in life, rather than merely survive or just get by?
Then you’re in the right place.
I Shine provides online learning programs, live group webinars, 1-on-1 and group coaching, and certification programs to guide you in supporting kids to build inner confidence, self-acceptance, and the courage to be their true, authentic selves so they can reach their highest potential.

The Great Awakening (My Perspective)

Fear or Faith: Which Will You Choose?
I talk about this a lot: If you focus on what’s wrong, what’s bad, what you’re worried about, and what you FEAR, you send your energy there...and make that which you DON’T want to GROW. And when you focus on what you want, on what possibilities exists for you, on what...

The College Admissions Scandal: When the “At All Costs” Mentality Hurts Your Kid.
I’ve said on many occasions how there's nothing I wouldn't do for my son. I'm sure if I asked you you'd say the same about your kids. And while that may be a noble, heart-felt position many of us parents hold, knowing where to draw the line between “doing anything”...
My Love-Hate Relationship with High School
I’m in a love-hate relationship with the independence that comes with high school. My baby just started his Freshman year. I love that in 2 days he’s seemingly mastered the art of making his own lunches, is already a wiz at getting around Chicago on public...
What the Passing of Dr. Wayne Dyer Taught Me about Living
By Jill Hope I’ve never cried over the death of a public persona before – someone I didn’t know personally, but only through his work, his art. But that’s exactly what happened when I heard the passing of someone who was very influential in my life – Dr. Wayne Dyer....

Testimonials
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
I loved Powerful Girl Within! I have more self-esteem and it has helped me become more secure. All of the lessons were wonderful. Even if you’re just doing it for fun, I would totally recommend it. It was so fun!

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

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 reached out to Jill when my oldest daughter was getting ready to leave for college and we were going through a painful separation process. She helped me see how much of the pain was coming from my own issues and not really what was happening with my daughter. Once I was able to focus just on my daughter and improving the connection we had it was so much easier. I wish I would have started working with Jill when my daughters were younger….but I know it is never too late to improve your relati… Read more

I have started a new job… just one of the many new changes happening in my life. It all started by working your Powerful Girl Within program. My daughter is having a much better year at school. Though she still has some anxiety, her confidence with peers has improved dramatically.
My daughter and I also joined girls on the run after listening to your recording. It has been amazing. I never knew my body could run a 5k ever! Saturday is our big run and it will be a celebration of so many posit… Read more
Thank you Jill so much for your 11 New Parenting Rules! It was amazing to listen to you teach these rules with down-to-earth explanations and examples! Listening to these 11 rules and allowing my mind to open was such a positive experience. I am looking forward to applying the rules to parenting my 9 year old son and also applying these 11 rules in managing my life. Thanks again Jill!

This workshop is super fun, and all the things we talk about (tools) actually work, like I subconsciously do them now. It’s very fun and you can express yourself, and Ms. Celeste is super awesome and relatable for pretty much every girl. You should definitely check it out.

My daughter (9 yrs old) and I have been seeing a child psychologist to help with her anxiety, low moods, friendship troubles, feelings of being unloved and overall resistance to everything I say. I knew if we were experiencing these issues now, we may be heading for a rough road through the teen years. Although we have made some progress with the psychologist, I still have feelings of helplessness, more questions and I feel dependent on each visit for answers. I also wonder how my daughter… Read more
Everyone is really nice and respectful and it really helps with self-esteem. At my age most girls don’t get to do these kinds of things and don’t understand how to help themselves, but this class helps with that if you were to send you kid to this class I would totally recommend it.
