Ben Pugh Coaching

At Ben Pugh Coaching, we specialize in helping parents and teens thrive through connection, confidence, and compassionate support. Founded by Ben Pugh, a former high school principal, educator, and therapeutic foster parent, our coaching is rooted in personal experience and professional growth. Ben’s journey began with his own struggles as a teenager, facing anxiety, low self-confidence, and a few poor choices, including accidentally setting his school bus on fire. These early challenges sparked a lifelong passion for helping teens navigate their own paths with courage and clarity.

With over a decade of experience as a therapeutic foster parent alongside his wife, as well as 10 years in education, including five as a high school principal, Ben developed a deep understanding of what teens and their families truly need to succeed. His leadership helped boost graduation rates and dramatically reduce suspensions, reflecting his belief in the power of positive reinforcement and connection. Today, Ben shares the tools, strategies, and mindset shifts that helped him support struggling teens and overwhelmed parents, guiding families toward better relationships and brighter futures. Whether you’re a parent looking to lead with love or a teen aiming to grow in confidence and purpose, Ben Pugh Coaching is here to help you succeed.
