Did you know a staggering 54 percent of US teens feel ill-prepared regarding finances, planning for their future, and education?

Not only do more than half of the teens in the US not feel prepared, but they are also finding their plans for the future either being put on hold or being changed entirely.

Why? Because of their lack of preparedness or confidence in what awaits them in the future.

Raw and authentic, K. Sarrett empowers young listeners by breaking down the fundamental skill sets that teens and young adults should have in their tool kit.

If you have ever asked yourself:

If you keep putting up roadblocks such as:

  • I’ll never find a job that I’ll like because no one likes me.
  • My relationships fail because it’s all my fault.
  • I’ll always be fat because nothing works for a diet.
  • What’s the point of cleaning or staying organized when it’s just going to get messy again?

These objections are not your friend, and this negative self-doubt will hold you back. Don’t let it.

This is a guide for anyone who wants to benefit from the wealth of knowledge of someone who has lived experiences.

If you have ever wondered what skill sets you should have or know when venturing on your own, Sarrett’s guide covers the basics of independence as a teen navigating into adulthood.

Navigate Adulthood with Ease

This book was chosen for review because it covers life skills. Life skills is a high school elective now taught in our school. This book is for anyone who wants to learn from this experience. We can talk with relatives about what we need to know as adults. Sometimes it's uncomfortable to discuss specific topics. Life skills weren't mandatory when I was in high school. Home economics is not compulsory in traditional high schools. Life. This guide is for anyone who would like to gain from the experience of someone who knows what they are talking about. Sarrett’s guide will cover the basic skills you need to be independent as a teenager navigating adulthood. If you want to stop stressing and wasting your time, then I recommend purchasing this audiobook. You will find more than one of the twenty-three skills helpful.

I wish I had this book as a teenager

I wish I had this book as a teenager because I had so many questions when I moved out to study and this audiobook answers nearly all of them. Sometimes you'll feel stupid because you don't know what to do when growing up but with this guide you won't get lost! It covers everything from basics like grocery shopping and cooking to more advanced things like investing.

Excellent Book!

If only I had had a blueprint like this when I was a teenager!
This book is truly a valuable tool for any young person approaching adulthood.
The topics covered are many: personal hygiene, housekeeping, savings, objectives, relationships, and much more. I cannot think of anything that has not been covered.
Advice, tips, and good habits make this a truly comprehensive and practical guide.
The chapters are all about the same length, easy to navigate, and the narration is very enjoyable.
Excellent book!

Creative

This book is complete with excellent life skills for teenagers. Everything could be needed to prepare a teen, youth, or adult for the real world. If every adolescent were to read this book and give it their whole attention, they may learn a great deal and steer clear of making many mistakes along the road. I highly recommend this book. It's very common for us to say things like, "I know this or that." This is not a topic that interests me in the least. I simply do not have the time to deal with this, etc.
As a result, there is nothing that can be done about this. This impressive guide will raise your confidence and strengthen your relationships.

Interesting read

The book's focus on self-assurance stands out as a strong point. The author acknowledges that having confidence in oneself and valuing oneself are crucial in overcoming the difficulties of adolescence and beyond. The author uses activities and questions to help the reader focus on the positive and discover ways to build confidence. The book inspires young adults to value their individuality and take risks, paving the way for them to develop into strong, capable adults.The author shows compassion and understanding for the specific challenges that kids confront. Twenty-three fundamental abilities, such as communication, self-care, decision-making, goal-setting, and financial literacy, are distilled from the intricacies of adulthood. In-depth discussions of each ability are followed by specific recommendations on how readers might put those recommendations into practise.
The value of positive interactions is also emphasised throughout the book. The author discusses methods of constructive communication, approaches to resolving conflicts, and the significance of empathy and respect in establishing meaningful relationships with people. By working through realistic situations and engaging activities, readers gain the knowledge and confidence to create and maintain healthy and meaningful relationships with others in their personal and professional life.
