🧠 How Mary Used the RDCS Framework to Work a Solution at School

                         

Mary used the RDCS framework—Reality, Dissatisfaction, Creativity, and Speak—to process a painful situation at school. Her Reality was that some classmates were bullying her, and when she reported it to the teacher, she was told to simply go back to class. This response left her feeling dismissed and disheartened. Her Dissatisfaction grew as she realized the emotional weight of being unheard and unprotected. Now, Mary needs to take the issue to the next level by activating her Creativity and finding a new, courageous way of speaking up to ensure her voice is heard and the bullying is addressed.

🔁 RDCS Follow-Up Program (Reality – Dissatisfaction – Creativity – Speak)
As part of the SHAPE Teens Mentorship, we provide a personalized follow-up process after identifying a challenge through the RDCS method across the four environments: Home, School, Village, and Church.

In this follow-up session, the mentee — [Mentee’s Name] — is supported to open up further through real-time, in-depth conversations using precise, open-ended questions. This safe space allows [Mentee’s Name] to reflect more deeply, gain clarity, and discover possible solutions before the issue becomes critical.

At this stage, we guide [Mentee’s Name] through the 3L Conversational Framework:
✅ Letting Out – Expressing emotions, thoughts, and facts openly.
✅ Letting Go – Releasing emotional weight, confusion, or unhelpful beliefs.
✅ Letting In – Welcoming truth, support, and new ways of thinking.
