What is Room4Hope Coaching?
It’s me - Dijea Young. For the past 35 years, I’ve mentored families as a teacher, homeschool accreditation consultant, speech coach, and now as a Connected Families Certified Parent Coach. I combine my experience and perspective as both a parent and grandparent to help families communicate and connect.
Room4Hope Coaching was born out of my prayer for God to “make room for hope” in my own family. Now I coach 4 generations - parents, children, grandparents, and even great-grandparents - to nurture relationships across generations. My most valued achievement is being a trusted mentor to my own eight adult children as many of them raise their own families.
Here’s What Parents Are Saying
“When my son and I learned together about our [communication] temperament strengths and weaknesses our conflicts turned into something we tackled together instead of something that turned us away from each other. We have managed to keep working together instead of being defensive. Dijea gave me tools that helped me stay focused on what was improving instead of what was going wrong.”
“We feel encouraged and equipped to build consistent positive connection with our kids. The atmosphere in our home is shifting for the positive. We’re experiencing more connection and positive resolutions to challenging situations.”
“Dijea has a wealth of wisdom, experience, and coaching skills that served our group so well. I learned how to better listen to my children and connect with their hearts. Dijea . . . is kind, approachable, insightful, non-judgmental, relatable, and relevant.”
“I love how Dijea invested in me and in my daughter - she wanted to see our family thrive. She listened and learned about our situation and has been a great resource. She helped me recognize the ways I needed to change my own thinking, brainstormed the best ways to navigate challenges, and ultimately gave us an abundance of ideas to parent our daughter well. Whether you’re parenting or grandparenting, Dijea is the coach you want!”
