Empowering students to speak up, support others, and strengthen self-awareness.
When It’s Hard to Ask helps middle school students recognize that everyone struggles sometimes – and that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Through storytelling, humor, and real conversation, Zion “Z” Givens brings to life a relatable story about fear, embarrassment, and the courage to reach out. Students explore how judgment and self-doubt can keep them silent, and how choosing to ask for help can change everything. This high-energy, interactive presentation creates a space where students feel seen, heard, and supported.
They leave with:
- The confidence to reach out to trusted adults when something feels off
- Tools to support peers who may be struggling
- A deeper understanding of how fear and judgment impact mental health
- The courage to choose connection over silence
When It’s Hard to Ask helps schools build a culture of compassion and belonging – where students know they’re not alone, and that help is always within reach.
