Workshops, Coaching and More
Positive Masculinity
Workshops
How might you describe a teen boy in your life? It’s likely that your words could include: athletic, smart, driven, funny, helpful, kind…
The qualities mentioned above are impressive & important! But what about the attributes that let others know how your teen is actually doing, such as being vulnerable, sensitive, self-aware and open-hearted?
In this workshop boys contemplate society’s traditional definition of what it means to be a man, consider how historical manhood can be tied to social issues, reflect upon the opportunity to invest in friendships and uplift women, and share what type of adult men they want to be!
Female Empowerment
Workshops
We all want our girls to feel confident, practice self-love and acceptance, and realize that she is forever worthy of love and belonging.
We want our girls to have courage during big games, exams and performances, and to practice self-awareness and coping skills when life inevitably causes distress.
Margaret created this powerful, unique, 6 Week Workshop to support your teenager to not just survive the tough teenage years, but to realize her strength and soar!
Alcohol and Drug Prevention
Many of America’s teenagers are experimenting with pills, and the pills are becoming more lethal.
Topics for the Drug Prevention Workshop include information on some of today's most abused drugs including their long and short terms effects on the body and impact on the brain. Students also learn about substance abuse disorders, today's Opioid Epidemic & ways to stay social and safe.
Current Event Discussion Workshop

TESTIMONIALS
What Parents Are Saying
Jinny
“Working with Margaret has been absolutely wonderful. We feel incredibly blessed to have crossed paths with her. She has a wonderful, natural rapport with children; I could tell they feel seen/heard and she understands the importance of balancing fun while also being intentional and bringing forward the lessons to take away. She has supported my kids in a variety of ways, but the most important ones for us were working on confidence and a positive attitude. We have seen much growth in our children thanks to her support, warmth, reinforcement, and advice."

"I so highly recommend Margaret Teague’s discussion classes and book clubs for young children and teens! As a parent, I know that it’s important to keep a strong line of communication with your teenagers — but it’s also important to give them an opportunity to discuss current and personal issues with peers and an objective adult who can help guide them and give them a safe place to express their thoughts and ideas. Margaret does that, and our teenager truly enjoys those discussions — allowing him to grow and be exposed to and respect other viewpoints as well. I’ve been super grateful for her!"

"Can a person spark joy? Because Margaret did. She was the critical missing piece to my children's school experience. My son participated in Margaret's weekly Boy's Group starting 7th grade. My daughter participated in the Girl's Group throughout 5th and into 6th grade. At the time, they both went to the "good local school" but even then, there was whole child development that I was really keen on obtaining for them. Margaret provided everything that I felt was missing. Both kids were made to feel safe in discussing their opinions and feelings without judgment, each in their respective small groups moderated by Margaret. Each child developed positively in their own ways."
