I wish I had this when I was a teen!

I bought this for my nephew who is starting into the teen years. I decided to give it a listen so that we could discuss it together. I was amazed at the great information and advice in this book. I truly wish I had it when I was a teen! I will be making the paperback version of this book a standard gift for all of my young family members on their 13th birthdays.

Such a helpful resource for teens and parents

In a world full of filters, body shaming, bullying, and internet trolls, this book is such an important resource for teens today, Working on self-esteem and self-worth is important for anyone at any age, but the teenage years are some of the hardest. Having information like this to share with a teen is life-changing for both the parents and teens. Working on confidence and reducing anxiety during earlier years of life sets the stage for a happy future. Highly recommend.

Very good information

I do some work in this area and so I always try to listen to books that cover the topic. Teens, now more than ever, are finding things hard and much harder than their parents or grandparents. This book is perfectly timed and treats the mental health issues with not only understanding but with insight (“Your inner voice isn’t the authority of who you really" are and self-confidence versus self-esteem). All the sections covering anxiety and the negative cycle are so important and I not only enjoyed listening but, as someone who knows a bit about this specific area, I know how much this information can and will help. A very good book that will hold anyone in good stead.

If you know a teenager who is finding it tough....

I am minded that the style of delivery will make the content palatable to teenagers today. Certainly if this had been around during my teen years it would have helped me get through some of the "darker" parts of my life at that time. Angst and feelings of isolation can only have been exacerbated by recent global events. If you know a teenager who is open to listening to 3rd party adults - then this may well be of help to them.

Teenage rescue guide!

I wish I had this when I was growing up! I look after my nephew on weekends, and I almost forgot what it was like being a teenager until I read this. It has helped me communicate better and see things from another perspective. This book is packed with so many life lessons and strategies essential to help young adults navigate through their teenage years. It covers most common issues, decision’s and obstacles you will face during these years. If you’re a teenager looking for some guidance or want to take a proactive role in creating the right future, then this is highly recommended. You also get a free PDF copy to download which is a nice bonus!

Excellent Book

This book has stunning advice and is a fantastic guide that will benefit many teens. I appreciate how the author focuses on many tools to increase self confidence for teens as that could help them with smart decision making from a young age. Additionally, having such knowledge from an early stage will be gold transitioning into the adult years.

Great Self Help for Teenagers

Who doesn't want to fit in or not be bullied? Being embarrassed by other kids, no way!. Being a teenager is hard in the world we live in today. I have almost certainly had to deal with most of the situations described in this book, and so have most of my friends. No one escapes unscathed. But also having a way to deal with these things is a must too. I'll be recommending this book to my friends and we can get empowered together!

Very important resource!

I got this for my nephew and this will help him so much during his teen years! This brings so much insight on how a teenager thinks and how it impacts their behavior. Teenagers are faced with so much challenges that anxiety builds up without fail, this book brings solutions by developing self-confidence and gives teenagers the tools to have the right mindset. The narrator set a comfortable pace making it pleasant to listen to and easy to understand. Highly recommended to teens experiencing peer pressure and social anxiety but also for concerned parents that want to understand what their teen is going through. 5 stars!
