Today we’d like to introduce you to Rocio Stock.
Rocio, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
It all began while working with youth in 2003 as a mentor. I truly loved being a positive influence on girls who simply needed love, attention and direction. In 2009, my desire was to become a teen life coach, and so I began my certification journey. Not too long after, I became a teacher at a private school and realized that girls were timid to share with me as a teacher because they didn’t want the school involved with their personal issues. I am no longer a teacher, but a coach with the desire to be a safe place for girls (tweens – young adults) to be seen, heard and valued.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The biggest struggle I had when I started coaching was wondering where I’d find my clients. But then I realized that I could use this challenge as an opportunity to make something positive of it. Soon after, I started sharing my desire to serve girls with my friends and family via social media and got such a positive response. I’m so grateful for the support that simply came from sharing my heart.
Life Coach For Girls – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
Let’s walk through memory lane. Going through junior high was awkward, high school was full of peer pressure and college was straight out stressful. After graduation, you’re expected to go through adulthood as if you graduated Adulting University with straight A’s.
I specialize in supporting the journey of girls to find their confidence and self-worth by providing tools and life skills. These days it’s so easy for social media to negatively influence girls, but we have the opportunity to empower them to choose who they truly want to be. That’s why it is so valuable for girls of all ages to understand who they truly are and to make their own choices. When you give them space to make decisions about their future, they really do care about the details. So I’m here to hold that space for them to dream about who they want to be.
If you’re looking for a safe place for your girl(s) to grow, gain confidence and know their worth, let’s chat!
Lessons learned – If you had to start over, what would you have done differently?
If I had to start over, I would have kept a journal of all the reasons why I didn’t start coaching sooner. We all have a calling in life and we have two choices once we realize what that calling is; pursue it or don’t. I’m so glad I said yes to serving girls! It fills my heart with so much joy and gives my life purpose.
