Introductions & Healthy Foundations
Opening Remarks (5 Minutes)
"Welcome everyone to our first session of Real Talk Relationships . I’m so glad you’re here. Over the next 10 weeks, we’re going to dive deep into what it actually takes to build strong, healthy relationships—whether that’s with friends, family, or partners. Today is about getting to know each other and setting the rules for how we’ll talk. Relationships are personal, so we want this to be a space where everyone feels safe to be real."
Norms Facilitation Prompts (10 Minutes)
Ask the Group:
"What does 'respect' actually look like in a conversation like this one?"
"What do we need from each other to feel safe sharing personal thoughts or experiences?"
"Why is 'What’s shared here stays here' (confidentiality) so important for our group success?"
Definitions Activity Debrief (5 Minutes)
"Now that you've found your matches, let's hear some examples."
Script: "Can someone from the 'Boundaries' pair share a real-life example of a boundary? It could be as simple as telling a friend you can't text after 10 PM. What about 'Respect'? How do we show respect when we disagree with someone?"
Closing (5 Minutes)
"Great job today. We’ve set a strong foundation. Next week, we’re going to look at Communication Skills —specifically, how to make sure you’re actually being heard and how to listen so others feel valued. Before you leave, make sure you've filled out the reflection section on your worksheet. See you next time!"

Nurturing Healthy Friendships
Opening Remarks (3 Minutes)
"Welcome back, everyone. We’ve talked a lot about communication, boundaries, and empathy. Today, we’re applying all of that to our most common and often most important relationships: our friendships. Building a friendship is easy; maintaining a healthy one through challenges is where the real skill comes in. We're going to explore what makes a 'good' friend and how to build lasting trust."
Quality Facilitation Prompts (8 Minutes)
Ask the Group:
"Think of your closest friend. What is one quality they have that makes you feel safe or supported?"
"Is it possible to have a 'healthy' friendship with someone you don't fully trust? Why or why not?"
"How do we show support when a friend is going through something we haven't experienced ourselves?"
Role-Play Debrief (7 Minutes)
"Trust is fragile. In your role-plays, you practiced building or repairing it."
Script: "Did anyone find it hard to respond to a 'broken promise' scenario? What was the most effective phrase you used to show your partner that you were listening? Remember, building trust often requires consistent small actions over time, not just one big apology."
Closing (2 Minutes)
"Great insights today. Friendships are the lab where we practice all our relationship skills. Next week, we’re shifting gears to Healthy Dating Habits . We'll talk about what to look for in a partner and how to spot 'red flags' early on. Have a great week, and try to do one small supportive thing for a friend before we meet again!"

Healthy Dating & Red Flags
Opening Remarks (3 Minutes)
"Hello everyone. Today we’re diving into a topic that many of you care about: dating and romantic relationships. Whether you’re dating now or just thinking about it for the future, knowing the difference between a healthy habit and a red flag is one of the best ways to protect your emotional wellbeing. We're going to be real about what respect looks like in romance and how to speak up for what you need."
Habits Facilitation Prompts (8 Minutes)
Ask the Group:
"What is one dating 'habit' you see in movies or social media that actually feels kind of unhealthy in real life?"
"Why is it sometimes hard to see a red flag when you really like someone?"
"What does it mean to have 'mutual respect' in a relationship when you have a disagreement?"
Role-Play Debrief (7 Minutes)
"Speaking up for your needs in a dating relationship can feel vulnerable."
Script: "How did it feel to use an I-statement to set a boundary with a 'partner'? If you were the listener, did you feel attacked, or did the I-statement help you understand your partner's side better? Healthy partners want to know what you need to feel safe and happy."
Closing (2 Minutes)
"Thanks for being so open today. Romantic relationships can be complex, but sticking to your values and watching for those flags will guide you well. Next week, we’re moving into Digital Footprint & Etiquette —how your online life affects your offline relationships and reputation. See you then!"

Digital Footprint & Etiquette
Opening Remarks (3 Minutes)
"Welcome back. Today we're looking at a part of our lives that never really sleeps: our digital presence. Most of our relationships today have a digital component—we text, we post, we tag. But every click and every comment leaves a trail, a digital footprint. Today, we're talking about how to manage that footprint and how to use digital etiquette to keep our online relationships healthy and respectful."
Mapping Facilitation Prompts (8 Minutes)
Ask the Group:
"If someone you just met looked at your digital footprint, what would they think your #1 hobby or passion is?"
"Why does a digital 'footprint' matter for your future job or college applications?"
"Is it ever possible to 'erase' a digital footprint? Why should we behave as if it's permanent?"
Etiquette Debrief (7 Minutes)
"Online misunderstandings happen because we can't see body language or hear tone."
Script: "How did it feel to practice those respectful replies? Was it easier or harder than doing it in person? When we're behind a screen, it's easy to be impulsive. Pausing before you reply or ask for clarification is one of the best digital etiquette habits you can develop."
Closing (2 Minutes)
"Thank you for being so thoughtful today. Managing our digital lives is a lifelong skill. Next week is our final session ! We’ll be reviewing everything we’ve learned, celebrating our growth, and creating a roadmap for your future relationships. Don't miss it—it's going to be a great celebration. See you then!"
