Image and Personal Coaching for Youth


With unemployment at an all time high, it is important that young adults can present themselves in the best possible way and create the right impression with future employees.

Young adults might spend the majority of their teenage years wearing similar clothes so that they “fit in” and do not draw attention to themselves but as they enter the job market it is important to have the right personal image and exude the confidence that enables them to stand out from the crowd.

Image and personal coaching can make a lasting difference to the lives of young people and can help them to develop self-awareness, personal growth, confidence & self-esteem.

As a result, they will also develop a better understanding of personal identity and its relationship to visual expression in order to feel and look better at:

  • Important college events
  • Job interviews
  • Dates
  • Family events

At Chrysalis Studios we will help them to increase their confidence by conducting mock interviews and giving them constructive feedback throughout. We will also explain the importance of body language, and show them how to create the right image for important events.

February is now the new January!

The snow has cleared, the weather is milder & the feel good factor has started to return after the highlights and celebrations of Christmas and the New Year.

At the beginning of the year we put so much pressure on ourselves to set goals, lose weight or find that special person that when we don’t feel motivated enough to keep them up, we feel disheartened and are our own worst enemies.  

One way to overcome this might be to view January as being our well-deserved month off!  A time for us to take care of ourselves, be self-indulgent, watch our favourite movies with a box of chocolates to hand, and to just be happy “living and appreciating the now” rather than “striving to do”.  Then towards the end of the month we will begin to feel like a bear coming out of hibernation, recharged, revitalized and ready to embrace life and what lies ahead.


In February, aside from the constant bombarding from advertising tools that Valentine’s Day is fast approaching - which is great if you already have a partner but not always the case if you don’t - we can relax, reflect on the highs and lows from the previous year and begin where we left off.


"Chrysalis Studios helped me change career and also find love."  F.
February might then be the right time to focus more clearly on what you would `like to do` or `no longer continue to do’ for the rest of the year.  It could be as simple as empowering yourself to say “no” to things you don’t really want to do just because it is the easier option, by being more courageous and finding your voice.  Or taking up a new hobby or sport so that you create the opportunity to improve your skills and also meet new people. 
Unlike other lifestyle services, gyms or weight loss clubs who push their clients to make changes in the first week of January. We believe there is so much pressure on an individual that it not sustainable.  At Chrysalis Studios we adopt a different approach and give our clients time for reflection and prefer to start with new routines and changes in February.

Whatever you decide to do and when is up to you, but if you continue to do the same things you will get the same results so taking the first steps towards change is where it all begins…….
