About this listen
Here’s what you need to have in order to survive and thrive in life–get ready to overcome challenges with wisdom and confidence!
Are you worried about your future and wonder whether or not you will be able to achieve your goals?
Are there times you feel down for no apparent reason, but you don’t know how to deal with difficult emotions?
Do you think you’re ready to handle home emergencies when your parents are away?
Adulting can be hard. Every grown-up has experienced the challenging transition from adolescence to adulthood.
It’s the critical period in life where you’re beginning to deeply feel not just what’s happening in the outside world, but also what’s going on within.
You might be anxious about your studies or feeling stuck in your job, and you have no idea how to move forward. Maybe you’re experiencing fluctuating emotions and feel confused about life in general. But don’t blame yourself for feeling this way, because adulting is indeed marked with twists and turns—it’s full of fun, frustrations, joy, disappointments, success, and everything in between.
But remember that at any stage of life, problems are inevitable, but they are opportunities for growth. All these can make you wiser and stronger if you choose to conquer them.
So the best thing you can do is empower yourself to deal with whatever life throws at you…and it starts with equipping yourself with essential life skills.
That’s where this book comes in—from cooking your own meals and handling home emergencies, to taking care of your mental health and planning and succeeding in your career…this guide has you covered.

These past years have been tough, and teens may have had it the hardest. From social isolation to re-integration, economic uncertainty, the pressures of academic achievement in an increasingly competitive society, and navigating the dangers of the online world, teens must face unique challenges that most adults never experienced in their youth. Unfortunately, these challenges have resulted in 91 percent of Gen Z young adults experiencing symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, making them the generation with the worst mental health on record.

The gender gap reaches beyond the workplace: it also impacts medical diagnoses! While 13% of boys are diagnosed with ADHD, only 4.2% of girls are, and it’s not because girls don’t have it: it’s because we are misdiagnosed! To make matters worse, the older we get, the harder it is for medical professionals to diagnose and treat us properly. Often the only time a medical professional will notice it is if we have children who are diagnosed. By then, you’re used to living in the chaos of your home and brain!
