Welcome to the Professional Troublemaker Podcast – Little Troublemaker Special, where we celebrate the tiny rebels in our lives! Today’s episode is all about the power of audacity, and who better to help us explore this topic than the bold and brilliant Kylee, the youngest guest we’ve ever had on the show (yet)!

This week, I kick off the return of the podcast with a Letter to my Younger Self. I’m telling her 5 things to remember as this journey of life flows. The lessons that she would have wanted to know early, and not just from trial by fire. And to do so, I have to tap in to that kid I was because  the message in the book is one she needed to hear, and one I still need to hear sometimes now.

RISING TROUBLEMAKER: A Fear-Fighter Manual for Teens is out in the world! And today on the podcast, I’m sharing a sneak peek of the audiobook version I narrated. Listen to this episode featuring an excerpt from Chapter 8: Get Your Money, and make sure to grab a copy of RISING TROUBLEMAKER at RisingTroublemaker.com or wherever books are sold!

This week, I’ve got a special RISING TROUBLEMAKER edition of the podcast. I’m talking to Zaila Avant-garde – spelling bee champ, basketball phenom, and future astronaut. This conversation will inspire you to go all-in on your goals as you listen to Zaila share how curious and disciplined she is about going after her goals.

Teens today deserve to know what we didn’t get a chance to. In this episode (and in my upcoming book RISING TROUBLEMAKER), I want to loan teens courage and share the cheat codes and lessons I wish I had learned as a teen, as well as some lessons I’m still learning.
