It’s 2006. After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center."

An important time to understand inner workings
Joyce T. Presents us with an incredible presentation in audiobook form that delivers the inner workings of the growing brain at such an incredibly important time. I feel that if more families took understanding this kind of knowledge more seriously, then parenting skills would excel (knowledge is power), and therefore, the collective community and understanding would thrive, not only in family units, but in educational systems as well. This book emphasizes an importance on academic success by way of truly understanding the inner workings of young minds and cognition. It’s not enough to simply deliver facts in the classroom–these facts and learnings must be met with a true grasp on the students cognition and abilities–the kind of understanding that will help not only students thrive, but the educator too. The listener is met with understanding what might seem like bad behavior (autonomy development is so important), communication properly, connecting in a way that take mental health seriously, and so much more. An important listen for any educator teaching to this age.

Teenagers Make Stupid Decisions
If you're a teenager or a parent that has adolescent kids, then this book is for you! This is supportive and informative and provides key story parallels that helps you understand your teenage brain or your kids' brain. I wish I had this back when I was a teenager and had a myriad of misconstrued cogitations.
Highly recommend and worth your time.
