Mentoring
A helping hand that won't let go
To pass on to them everything we wish
we had learned
at their age.
Ben supports a limited number of private clients on a daily basis, following them individually
Each journey is meticulously tailored to individual needs, aiming for aligned, deep and lasting transformation. This holistic approach is designed for those looking to achieve meaningful change in their personal lives. In addition to this intensive follow-up, Ben also offers a mentoring program for young people aged 16 to 25. This program aims to provide the same high levels of personalized guidance and support, tailored to the specific challenges and opportunities of this age group.
Due to the in-depth nature of the follow-ups, the number of clients Ben can support is strictly limited. We invite you to submit your application via our online form. Each request is handled with the greatest care and respect. Please note that due to the large number of applications, we cannot guarantee follow-up to all applicants. You will be contacted if your profile matches this type of follow-up when openings arise.
Testimonials
I was 18 years old when I started being coached by Ben. At first, I just wanted someone to spar with, but I quickly realized there was so much more to it. We began our sessions in the spring of 2022, right before I started my bachelor's degree. It would be an understatement to say that I was profoundly impacted.
I will always remember the day he asked me to write about what he calls the "North Star," meant to represent the most extreme and beautiful lifestyle I could envision for myself, including how I imagined my future routine and career. Within two years, I had achieved dreams I thought would only be possible twenty years down the line. The beauty of it is that our goals, our visions, grow as we do, and one of the many things Ben taught me is to be curious about ourselves and never limit our imagination. Thanks to our work together, I feel like I get a little closer each day to my goals and the person I aspire to become.
His approach is more than professional; it is deeply personal. He didn't just equip me with practical tools to navigate life's challenges, but he also showed me the importance of introspection and self-kindness. With these insights, I've learned to harness my strengths and acknowledge my weaknesses, which has allowed me to develop a sense of self-acceptance that has been transformative.
Physically, the journey has been demanding, but his support has been an anchor in uncertain moments. From personalized workout plans to nutritional advice, he not only improved my physical health but also sparked in me a new appreciation for my body and its capabilities. The synergy between mental and physical well-being that he emphasizes in his work has become a cornerstone of my happiness.
Beyond the structured sessions, his genuine concern and encouragement have been invaluable. His ability to listen without judgment and offer insights created a safe space for me to explore my thoughts and feelings. When I first started working with Ben, I was out of breath after running a kilometer, and a year later, I completed my first triathlon. Even though it was me who physically crossed the finish line, it was our work together that gave me the confidence to even consider such a goal.
His faith in my potential, even when I doubted myself, has been a source of inspiration.
When I started coaching with Ben, I was a lost 17 year old, facing one of the darkest parts of his life. I had stopped sports, I had major conflicts with some close family members, and I was surrounded by many toxic relations. All of which steered me in a direction that would have seen much of my potential wasted, and quite frankly me to become any odd spoilt child.
However Ben came into my life, with his 360° coaching, he shook my whole world. I am 20 now, studying in a top university worldwide, while working and leading team of 6 people for an industry leader in the Startup scene, I have reconciled with my family, I work out at least 3-5 times a week, I got broke free from the toxic relationships and friendships that kept me down.
The journey was definitely not an easy one, filled of tough times. But whatever life threw at me the past 3 years, and no matter how difficult times got. I always knew I had Ben by my side, and that together we were going to be able to push through anything.
And I guess if I can finish on one thing, I will do so on a discussion I had with my mum recently. She asked me, with all the pressure I was under if there was one thing she could do help me with or buy me and I replied: "Just keep Ben in my life, that's the best gift you can do for me and my future"
I met Ben after attending one of his seminars and felt inspired to work with him to achieve my goals. Before that, I lacked self-confidence, was lazy, and didn't have the inner strength to accomplish my goals on my own. I needed help. I was accepted into an intensive 3-month coaching program with Ben, and through our sessions, I managed to gain self-confidence, better understand my body, and make significant physical progress. The hardest part for me was making progress despite some negative influences in my environment. Ben was always there for me. He never let go and always supported me.
Ben is truly an amazing person with a big heart and incredible humility, who genuinely wants to give us everything he has. I encourage everyone to get to know him and to allow themselves to be helped by him if they need it.
Today, I am incredibly grateful to him, and if I've been able to change all these things in my life, it's thanks to him. Thank you, Ben.
Both my son and myself have worked with Ben at different stages of our journeys and his support made a tremendous difference to us.
Ben has an holistic (body, soul & nutrition) approach to coaching that makes his work tremendously impactful and enables you to sustain the changes that you want to put in place. He also has an amazing capability to grasp one’s story and traits and adjust his approach to it whilst confronting you to your commitments.
Along the way, I was personally impressed by his maturity as a coach, feeling in many instances that his soul was much older than mine… overall I am extremely grateful to him on the work we did together and can warmly and very sincerely recommend him to anyone who truly wants to make a step change in their life.
Ben is an excellent coach, attentive and available, who encouraged me immensely to push beyond my limits and realize my potential! His words of encouragement go beyond just sports and nutrition; he also helped me build confidence in myself and my personal projects. His passion is contagious, and his unwavering support made it a wonderful experience that will stay with me forever! Thank you for everything!
We completed a 3-month mentoring program with Ben, and thanks to his coaching, we were able to completely change our mindset around sports and nutrition, adopting a much healthier approach. We stopped focusing solely on the physical aspect and began to also prioritize our mental well-being. Ben helped us discover what it means to enjoy sports and discipline, but without any pressure. He provided us with very clear explanations that helped us better understand ourselves, and he was also a source of kind, non-judgmental motivation. Always attentive, we could ask him any questions, whether physical or mental, and we could see our progress from one session to the next. We highly recommend Ben to anyone looking to improve physically or mentally, and to do so while enjoying every session. Thank you, Ben!
Before meeting Ben, I was in a negative period. I couldn't see the positive aspects of life anymore. Physically, I wasn't in top shape. Ben immediately put me at ease; he was always attentive and there when I needed him. We were able to address my personal issues and some family patterns that were difficult for me to talk about. It was very reassuring to know that I had someone to rely on, someone I could unload on, and that I wasn't alone in what I was experiencing.
I recommend Ben to anyone who needs it. He takes the time to understand each person's personal history and provides personalized support. For me, it was a joy, and today I can only thank him for my progress. A year ago, I was starting from far behind, and now I see that I'm getting closer to my goal.
Thank you so much!
As a professional footballer today, I want to share my experience working with Ben on personal development and mental training. If you want to grow and reach your full potential, some people are exceptionally well-equipped to help you. I had the opportunity to work with one of the best, and I highly recommend him. He knows how to help you put into practice what will benefit you. I still thank him to this day!
Ben is someone who is passionate and always performs his work meticulously, leaving nothing to chance. The main factors for achieving convincing results are nutrition and consistency. Remember that everything is possible and that your only obstacle is yourself.
I turned to Ben to become physically stronger, initially with the goal of improving my performance in my sport. He introduced me to the basics of nutrition and weight training. Gradually, I developed a passion for this lifestyle. I’m grateful to Ben for what he’s given me and for sparking that initial inspiration. Thanks to him, I’ve committed myself to a passion and am working towards achieving my goals.
FAQ - Mentoring for Teenagers and Young Adults with Ben Campagna
What is mentoring for teenagers and young adults with Ben Campagna?
Mentoring with Ben Campagna is individual support designed for young people aged 16 to 25 who are going through a period of doubt, pressure, loss of direction, or transition into adult life.
It is a comprehensive and personalised form of support that takes into account the young person’s physical, mental, emotional, and personal dimensions. The work may focus on lifestyle, discipline, self-confidence, stress management, motivation, relationships, identity building, and defining a clearer direction.
The goal is to pass on solid foundations, the kind many people wish they had integrated earlier, in order to help the young person move forward with greater stability, responsibility, lucidity, and alignment.
To submit a request, use the contact form and specify that it is a mentoring request for a teenager or young adult.
Who is this youth mentoring programme designed for?
This mentoring is designed for teenagers and young adults who need an external, supportive yet demanding framework to navigate an important stage of their life.
It can be adapted to young people who lack confidence, feel lost, experience stress or anxiety, struggle with discipline, have difficulty finding their direction, are going through a period of demotivation, or face challenges in their relationship with themselves, others, or their future.
Each mentoring request is reviewed with care, as the number of places is intentionally limited.
For people over 25 or high-responsibility profiles, also explore Ben Campagna’s private coaching.
What benefits can mentoring offer my teenager or young adult?
Mentoring can help a young person better understand themselves, identify their behavioural patterns, develop a healthier lifestyle, and build stronger foundations for their future.
The work can support self-confidence, stress management, discipline, mental health, personal clarity, motivation, body awareness, relationships with others, and the ability to make more aligned choices.
This stage of life is often decisive. Supporting a young person at this point can help them develop lasting foundations for their health, performance, relationships, and personal development.
To better understand Ben’s overall approach, visit the About page.
How can I support my teenager through stress, anxiety or a loss of direction?
When a teenager is going through a period of stress, anxiety, academic pressure, lack of confidence, or loss of direction, they may need a space outside the family to express what they are experiencing, understand their emotions, and learn how to regulate themselves more effectively.
Ben’s mentoring is based on an integrated approach: psychology, neuroscience, physical activity, lifestyle, discipline, breathing, movement, and work on personal patterns. The goal is to help the young person better understand what is happening within them and develop concrete tools to navigate difficult periods.
This framework can also help ease certain family tensions, by offering the young person a trusted space and giving parents external support during what can sometimes be a delicate period.
Ben also explores these themes in his events and training programs around psychology, stress mastery, and advanced personal development.
My teenager shows addictive or risk-taking behaviours. Is mentoring suitable?
Mentoring may be relevant if the young person is willing and ready to engage in real work on their behaviours, habits, environment, and internal mechanisms.
In this type of situation, the goal is to help the young person understand what fuels repetitive or destructive behaviours, rebuild healthier patterns, and develop concrete tools around regulation, discipline, lifestyle, and their relationship with themselves.
Depending on the severity of the situation, medical, psychotherapeutic, or specialised support may be necessary alongside the mentoring. Mentoring does not replace medical care, but it can support the young person in their daily life and reconstruction process.
To present the situation, use the contact form and specify the young person’s age, context, and main needs.
My relationship with my teenager is tense. Can mentoring work if they are sceptical?
Yes, this type of situation is common, but the young person’s engagement remains essential. Mentoring can only work if the teenager or young adult agrees to take part in the process and build a relationship of trust.
An initial meeting usually helps establish contact, set a clear framework, and assess whether the young person feels ready to get involved. The request may come from the parents, but the young person’s willingness is essential for the support to be meaningful.
In some cases, this work can help reduce family tensions, as the young person benefits from a neutral space outside the parental framework, while parents can regain more perspective and breathing room.
This approach is part of Ben’s broader work around human behaviour, behavioural patterns, and personal transformation, presented on the About page.
What role do parents play in the mentoring process?
Mentoring is first and foremost designed to serve the young person’s needs. A confidentiality framework is therefore necessary to allow a genuine relationship of trust between Ben and the person being supported.
Parents may be informed of the main outlines of the mentoring progress, the goals being worked on, and any important elements, while still respecting the young person’s private space. Depending on the situation, they may also play a supportive, structuring, or enabling role in the process.
When mentoring involves a minor, parental consent is required. Exchanges with parents may be proposed or recommended if they support the young person’s development and the success of the mentoring process.
For young adults over 25, or parents who wish to work on their own personal trajectory, private coaching may be more suitable.
What format does the mentoring take?
Mentoring is fully personalised according to the young person’s situation, age, needs, and goals. It may include individual video sessions, regular follow-up, exercises between sessions, and more continuous support depending on the framework defined.
In-person meetings may occasionally be considered in the Lausanne region or in French-speaking Switzerland, depending on availability, context, and the relevance of the support.
The exact rhythm depends on the situation: academic stress, exams, transition, personal difficulties, need for discipline, self-confidence, health, sport, relationships, or building a life project.
For young people interested in occasional group formats, also explore the events, workshops, and training programs.
What is the difference between mentoring and working with a psychologist?
Psychological support generally focuses on the psychological, emotional, or therapeutic dimension, within a clinical or psychotherapeutic framework.
The mentoring offered by Ben has a broader and more integrated approach. It may include mindset, lifestyle, physical health, nutrition, movement, discipline, confidence, relationships, personal performance, and the construction of a clearer life direction.
Mentoring is not opposed to psychological support. It can be complementary when the young person needs more concrete, day-to-day, action-oriented support. Ben then acts as an external partner in the young person’s journey: supportive, structuring, and demanding.
For specific therapeutic needs, a healthcare professional remains the primary reference.
You can learn more about Ben’s background and approach on the About page.
Is mentoring open to all young people?
Mentoring is primarily designed for young people aged 16 to 25, but each request is reviewed individually. The number of mentoring places is strictly limited to ensure deep, personalised, and serious support.
This support is not designed as a quick fix or as something imposed on the young person. It requires a minimum level of engagement, willingness, and openness to personal work.
Requests are reviewed with care, and mentoring cannot be guaranteed for every situation.
To submit a mentoring request, you can use the contact form and specify the young person’s age and the context of the request.
