About Coach Farrah
Hello, I'm Farrah Haugen, and I'm a dedicated life coach for teen girls. My mission is to create a nurturing and safe environment that empowers inner growth. Working one-on-one with your daughter, I am committed to helping her find her voice, boost her confidence, tap into her inner strength, and discover her wisdom. My journey began with the challenges of my own teenage years. I enjoyed a vibrant social life and had close friends, but I also made regrettable choices. Throughout these formative years, I grappled with addiction, eating disorders, depression, and complex relationships with boys and men – struggles that extended into adulthood. Like many teenagers, I thought I knew it all, an embodiment of youthful overconfidence. Over time, I learned the limitations of my teenage self.
My perspective began to shift when I became a parent and met my soulmate later in life, who had two children of his own. We now form a blended family, which includes our vivacious 5-year-old daughter. I've always been uncomfortable with labels like "step" parent and "step" kids. I consider my husband's two teenagers, a girl(14) and a boy(16), extraordinary additions to my life. I see them as my "bonus children," and I strive to be a "bonus mom" - a forever supportive figure in their lives, never to replace their own mother but to complement her role. Each of our children, including my 15-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, has encountered their unique set of challenges during their tween and teen years. It became increasingly evident that the support available to teenagers was lacking. Overburdened therapists and a scarcity of resources left me searching for better options for my own daughters during crucial moments when they could have greatly benefited from guidance from a caring adult. This realization ignited a passion within me to become a life coach for girls. I recognized a genuine need for support, not only for my daughters but for other girls in our local community. My journey as a life coach began with the desire to be that much-needed support for adolescents navigating the challenges of their teen years, and I remain committed to this purpose. I bring a wealth of experience to my role as a life coach for girls, gathered through years of dedicated mentoring. My journey in coaching girls started as a gymnastics coach, a role I held for many years. In my mid twenties to early thirties I owned a female-focused business where I coached and provided invaluable support to numerous girls in their teens and early twenties, even before the concept of 'life coaching' had fully emerged.
Naturally, I assumed the role of a life coach long before it became a recognized profession. Recently I've expanded my impact by establishing a health and fitness studio tailored specifically for kids, teens, and families. This venture has allowed me to be a supportive mentor and coach in the lives of many children. My unique experiences in guiding girls through sports and as a business owner who has supported many young women have significantly shaped my approach.
Currently, I stand on the brink of finalizing a demanding certification in teen girl life coaching. Over the past few years, I've wholeheartedly dedicated myself to a journey of learning, continuous study, and personal growth. Soon, I'll proudly add this unique specialization to my repertoire as a Certified Teen Wisdom Life Coach™. Throughout this transformative experience, I've honed and acquired a distinct set of skills that will empower your daughter as she blossoms and thrives into her adult years.
