How Mary Used RDCS at home
🟢 Reality:
The mentee is facing verbal abuse from her mother, who often uses derogatory and hurtful language toward her. These words deeply affect her, especially because they come from someone she looks up to and expects love and care from.
🔴 Dissatisfaction:
She feels emotionally wounded and confused. The pain is intensified by the fact that the abuse is coming from her own mother — someone she thought would protect her, not harm her. She feels unseen, unheard, and spiritually drained.
🟡 Creativity:
In response, the mentee has chosen to pray for her mother. She believes that God can change her mother’s heart and has committed to interceding for healing in their relationship. This faith-based approach is her way of holding onto hope while dealing with the pain.
🗣️ Speak:
She bravely shared this during her mentorship session, acknowledging her emotional wounds and her decision to respond with grace and prayer instead of retaliation. She is beginning to think about how to care for herself emotionally while praying for her mom’s transformation.

🔁 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.
