A CYPFS Story – James Wetu
Accredited CYPFS Youth Coach in Nairobi, Kenya
Here is James Story,
“I always knew that I wanted to help others but didn’t know what that would look like. When I had my own coach, I really connected with my purpose, I needed to help others reach their future by supporting them to achieve their goals. Coaching has helped me transform my own life, and now I support others in transforming theirs.
I found CYPFS resources online and completed my training to be a leader. I feel I now have the tools to coach young people confidently. With such feedback I am convinced coaching young people in schools is the right thing that I should invest my time in.
Coaching in schools is a new concept in Kenya. I have been offering CYPFS workshops in Ng’araria Girl’s high school and loving every minute of it, and getting great student feedback.“

‘I think this is the most rewarding information I have ever received in my entire period in high school. I have never thought about my life and career or set goals for the future just day to day. It has helped me understand my personality and possible career choices that I could do and love. It is clear to me now that I need to plan my life and career to enjoy successful living.... I wish all of my friends could have a chance to develop their own plans and start working towards a goal just like I am. It is for sure an eye opener.’’
