A self-esteem workshop for the adults who give all day and rarely get filled back up. The companion session to the Unsticking the Sticky Stories Self-Esteem Assembly, or a powerful stand-alone.
A boost to your own self-esteem, the fuel behind real resilience, plus classroom-ready tools for helping students unstick negative self-talk and build self-esteem of their own. Not just for assembly day. For the ordinary Tuesday a kid needs someone to be their Honeybee.
Kristen didn't learn to see her own worth from a lecture. She learned it from Honeybee, a Holstein dairy cow who looked at her and saw straight past every sticky story she believed about herself, to the kid underneath who was loved, capable, and enough. That single moment of truly being seen is the whole engine behind her assembly, the Unsticking the Sticky Stories Self-Esteem Assembly.
But here's what most people miss: teachers need a Honeybee too.
You're juggling what parents expect, what the curriculum demands, what the administration needs from you, and what thirty different kids need from you, all at once, all day. You give and give, and it's easy to lose track of the last time someone looked at you the way Honeybee looked at Kristen.
That's what this session is: a moment for you to be seen, and a boost to your own self-esteem, because self-esteem is where real resilience starts. You can't run on empty and still be someone's Honeybee.
From there, Kristen shares practical tools, drawn from her own experience as a former ACE kid, a parent, and a career presenter, for becoming the Honeybee at your school: the adult a student remembers as the one who saw them, and helped their self-esteem grow because of it.
