Coaching for Parents Who Want to Help Their Young Adult Move Forward
You can see they’re struggling.
Maybe they’re overwhelmed, unmotivated, anxious, unsure what they want, avoiding responsibilities, or stuck in a cycle of “I know I need to do something, but I don’t know how to actually start.”
And as a parent, that is a really hard place to be.
You want to help, but you don’t want to nag.
You want to support them, but you don’t want to take over.
You want them to grow up, but you also don’t want to sit back and watch them struggle alone.
That’s where coaching can help.
At Kurtis Vanderpool Life Coaching, our founder-led coaching team helps young adults build confidence, direction, ownership, and follow-through so they can start moving forward in a healthier, more grounded way.
When Your Young Adult Feels Stuck
Young adults come to coaching for all kinds of reasons.
Some are struggling in college.
Some feel anxious or overwhelmed.
Some lack motivation or follow-through.
Some are unsure about their major, career, relationships, or next step.
Some are capable, thoughtful, and full of potential, but they feel stuck.
And when they’re stuck, parents often feel stuck too.
You may find yourself reminding them constantly, offering advice they don’t take, worrying late at night, or wondering whether you should push harder or back off.
Sometimes young adults need support from someone who isn’t their parent. Not because parents are doing something wrong. Because the relationship is different.
A coach gives them another trusted adult who can listen, ask good questions, help them think clearly, and support them as they take more ownership of their life.
What Coaching helps With
Our coaches help young adults work on things like:
Motivation & Follow- Through
Confidence & Self-Doubt
Stress , Anxiety, & Overwhelm
Time Management & Routines
College Adjustment
Friendships & Social Anxiety
Career Decisions & Life Direction
Relationships & Communication
Independence & Responsibility
Figuring Out What Comes Next
The goal is not perfection.
The goal is growth.
We help young adults become more grounded, responsible, confident, and clear about who they are becoming.
A Founder-Led Coaching Team
Kurtis Vanderpool Life Coaching is a founder-led coaching program.
That means clients are not randomly assigned to a coach. Kurtis leads the coaching framework, trains and supports the coaching team, and helps match each client with the coach who seems like the best fit for their goals, personality, needs, and schedule.
Each coach brings their own personality and strengths, but the heart of the work is the same:
Help young adults slow down, understand themselves better, and take meaningful steps forward.

What parents Can Expect
You can expect us to take your concerns seriously without treating your young adult like a problem to fix.
You can expect coaching to focus on growth, ownership, confidence, and practical next steps.
You can also expect healthy boundaries.
Coaching works best when young adults feel they have a space that is truly theirs. We do not report every detail of each session back to parents, but we can discuss general goals, themes, and ways you can support the process when appropriate.
Is Coaching the Right Fit?
Coaching may be a good fit if your young adult:
- Is willing to talk with a coach
- Feels stuck but is open to growth
- Needs help with confidence, direction, habits, or follow-through
- Could benefit from another trusted adult outside the family
- Needs support taking ownership of school, work, relationships, or life
Coaching may not be the right fit if your young adult:
- Refuses to participate
- Is in immediate crisis
- Needs clinical mental health treatment as the primary support
- Needs academic tutoring more than coaching
During the consultation, we can talk through what kind of support makes the most sense.
You Don’t Have to Figure This Out Alone
It’s hard to watch your young adult struggle.
It’s hard to know when to step in, when to step back, when to encourage, and when to let them work through something on their own.
Coaching gives your young adult support from someone outside the family who can help them build confidence, direction, and ownership.
And it gives you a little more peace knowing they are not trying to figure it all out alone.
