Who Gets to Decide Who You Are Reflection Guide for Student Edition You're a Real Piece of Work and So Am I

Who Gets to Decide Who You Are? is a free reflection guide created for students who are navigating the pressure of fitting in, measuring up, and figuring out who they are.

Through personal stories, thoughtful reflection, and practical exercises, this guide invites students to slow down and consider the voices, labels, and expectations that shape their identity. Rather than focusing on who the world says they should be, they'll begin discovering the person they are becoming.

Inside you'll find:

• A personal story about the power of words and the labels we carry.

• Reflection questions to explore identity, friendships, strengths, and character.

• Practical exercises to help students move beyond comparison and build confidence.

• A "Letter to My Future Self" activity to encourage continued growth.

• A 30-day check-in to revisit progress and celebrate becoming.

Whether you're a student, parent, teacher, coach, or youth leader, this guide provides a meaningful starting point for conversations about identity, purpose, and character.

This companion resource is inspired by You're a Real Piece of Work... And So Am I – Student Edition and is designed to help students discover that their worth is not determined by grades, popularity, performance, or the opinions of others.

One journey. One life. Live it intentionally.
