Your Impact on Others
Reflect on how your behaviour lands on others — consider not just what you intended but what the actual impact was on the other person
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“Your Impact on Others means separating intention from impact and noticing how behaviour lands on someone else. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.”
Bring to the table
- Cards: intention, impact, other person’s experience, repair
- Reflect prompt card
Extra for the adult
Worked example. You might intend a joke, but the impact can still hurt. Notice how it landed, not only what you meant.
Optional challenge. For Your Impact on Others, add a repair idea after noticing impact.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: intention/impact; support used. This session samples impact awareness, not mastery of counselling.

Check understanding
- Describe how something they said or did affected someone else — e.g. 'When I didn't include them, they looked upset'
- Predict what might happen before acting — e.g. 'If I take the last one without asking, they'll feel it's unfair'
- After a conflict, explain what they could have done differently and what effect that would have had
“Can your child think about how something they said or did might have felt to the other person — not just what they meant by it, but what the impact actually was?”
