About this listen
Ready to get a head start on adulting? Want to get a sneak peek at the "coming attractions" of real-world challenges?
The trick to moving from your teen years into adulthood isn't about having all the answers—it's knowing what questions to ask. This book is your go-to guide for all things grown-up and the handbook for those life questions you haven't even thought to ask.
Essential Life Skills for Teens & Young Adults–with lots of helpful illustrations, doesn't pretend to have all the answers in minute detail. Instead, it serves up a comprehensive "shopping list" of what you need to know and which skills to prioritize, preparing you for the independence that awaits.
Feeling the pressure of balancing academics, hobbies, and social life?
Wondering how to manage your finances, make big decisions, or even do your laundry without turning everything pink?
Do you worry about drowning in adult responsibilities soon because school never taught you the real-world stuff?
If your answer is ‘yes’ to any of the above, this book is your lifeline, offering smart, concise, and actionable advice—no filler, no fluff. Just straight-to-the-point, practical guidance.
Here’s a sample of what you'll discover inside:
● Self-Care Strategies: Learn to take care of your physical as well as mental self, so you can live life to the fullest!
● Health Hacks: Decode the health insurance jargon and dodge common illnesses and medical issues – including those health hassles no one wants to talk about.
● Time Management: Use time-tested tools to manage your precious time effectively and productively.
● Decisions & Directions: Equip yourself with the tools for savvy decision-making and effective goal-setting.
● Post-High School Possibilities: Explore your post-high school options with confidence—college, careers, gap year, or something else entirely.
● Money Mastery: Master simple strategies for saving, spending, and making your money work for you.
● Housekeeping & Maintenance: Keep your living space clean and organized; learn simple plumbing and electrical quick fixes.
● Kitchen Basics: Find out how to buy groceries, plan meals, and cook simple meals.
● Clothing Care: Decipher laundry labels, wash, dry, iron, and maintain your clothes for a winning wardrobe.
…and so much more.
