See What Teens Are Saying
Real Teens, Real Growth, Real Confidence.
Hear directly from teens who have worked with Coach Matt.
Help your teen build real confidence in conversations, friendships, and everyday social situations — all from the safety of home.
You’ve seen it. The hesitation before they speak up. The quiet at co-op. The friendships that never quite start.
It’s not that your teen lacks personality. They lack reps — small, safe, guided practice in actually using it.
Social Confidence Accelerator™
A 4-week online confidence & social skills program for teens — built around real practice, not another lecture about confidence.
And when the 4 weeks end, the coaching doesn’t. Every teen who enrolls now continues with 4 bonus weeks inside Inner Circle. The Accelerator builds the skills. Inner Circle helps them keep using them.
This isn’t a reading program. It’s a practice-based confidence experience.
Every week follows the same simple rhythm: coach, then practice, then a real-world challenge. The 24-page fillable Confidence Accelerator Workbook is your teen’s core session workbook — where they work through each coaching session, practice the skills, and capture what they’re learning.
- Coaching exercises and confidence tools
- Conversation frameworks & communication scripts to practice
- Reflection prompts after every session
- Session notes and practice spaces

The 4-Week Path
Each week builds on the last — from finding their voice to leading a real moment.
Everything Your Teen Gets
One simple program. Everything they need to practice, nothing they don’t.
The Coaching Doesn’t End After Week 4.
The Confidence Accelerator gives your teen the tools, practice, and confidence to start making real changes.
But confidence is built through reps, not perfection.
That’s why every teen who enrolls now receives 4 additional weeks inside Inner Circle — Coach Matt’s ongoing teen leadership and personal development coaching experience.
What Is Inner Circle?
Inner Circle is Coach Matt’s ongoing teen leadership and personal development coaching. It helps teens keep practicing what they learned in the Accelerator while developing broader life and leadership skills.
Instead of finishing the Accelerator and trying to maintain momentum alone, your teen gets another four weeks of coaching, conversation, accountability, encouragement, and real-world personal development.
Four Weeks Can Create Momentum. The Next Four Help Reinforce It.
The Confidence Accelerator teaches the foundational tools. Inner Circle gives teens another environment to use those tools, with a coach and peers alongside them.

Matt Adkins
I was voted “Most Shy” in my own school. I was held back a grade. At 16, one message from Zig Ziglar changed how I saw myself — and it became the reason I now spend my life helping teens find their own confidence before they reach adulthood.
I built this program because I’ve watched it happen again and again at YouthCon events across the country: teens don’t need more information about confidence. They need guided practice, in a small, safe space, with a little structure behind them.
As an Executive Pastor, I bring the same values your family already lives by into every session — this program is rooted in faith, not just technique.
What Parents and Students Are Saying
The Confidence Accelerator is designed to help teens move from fear and hesitation to confidence, communication, and real-life courage — one practical rep at a time.
Common Questions
What if my teen is really shy — will this still work?+
This program is built specifically for that. Every challenge starts small and builds gradually, and the coaching is done in a small group, not in front of a crowd. Most teens who go through this struggle with exactly the kind of shyness you’re describing — that’s who it’s designed for.
Is this covered by Step Up scholarship funds?+
Yes. Matt’s Youth Development Initiative, the Youth Summit, is an approved Step Up direct-pay vendor, which means eligible Step Up families can use their scholarship funds toward this program with $0 out of pocket. We’ll walk you through exactly how that works on your parent call.
How much time does this take outside the live sessions?+
Plan on about 20–30 minutes a week in the workbook, plus the practice challenge itself, which happens naturally throughout daily life — not as extra homework on top of everything else.
What do we need to participate?+
Just a phone, tablet, or computer with a working camera and Zoom access. That’s it — no special software or equipment needed.
Does my teen need their camera on?+
Yes — camera on is required for the live sessions. So much of building real confidence happens through being seen and practicing out loud with the group, and that only works if everyone’s actually present on camera, not just listening in.
What if we miss a live session?+
Life happens, especially for busy families. Sessions are recorded, and the workbook is built so your teen can keep moving forward even if a week gets missed.
What age range is this for?+
This program is built for teens in grades 6–12. If you’re unsure whether it’s the right fit for your child’s age or stage, book a free parent call and we’ll talk it through together.
Do I need to be on the calls with my teen?+
No — the live coaching sessions are just for the teens. You’ll get the Confidence in Action Parent + Teen Weekly Challenge Guide with simple ways to support your teen between sessions, so you stay involved without sitting in on every call.
What happens after the first 4 weeks?+
The Confidence Accelerator is the first phase. After completing the four core weeks, your teen receives four additional weeks inside Inner Circle, Coach Matt’s teen leadership and personal development coaching experience.
This gives them another opportunity to keep practicing, speaking up, building leadership skills, and developing beyond the original program.
After the four bonus weeks, families who want their teen to continue in Inner Circle will have the option to continue separately.
