While we were learning about isosceles triangles or whatever, nobody was telling us not to sign up for that credit card in college and ruin our credit for 2 decades. There are TOO many things that we didn’t learn as teenagers that we should have.
Nobody told us to negotiate everything, or that our jobs were NOT to people please our way to self-betrayal. When I look at my nieces and nephews, I REFUSE to let them stumble over the same blocks I stumbled over.
So, I adapted my NY Times bestselling book Professional Troublemaker into Rising Troublemaker: A Fear-Fighter Manual for Teens!
The book, geared towards 12-19 year olds, loans young adults the courage to thrive in a world that can make you feel powerless and voiceless.This is the book I needed at 16, when I still thought I had to be a doctor cuz that’s what I’d been told my whole life. This is the book I’m gonna give my niece who is about to graduate high school, to better prepare her for this world. I’m bringing FULL auntie energy here.
Our goal is to get 5,000 copies of RISING TROUBLEMAKER in the hands of young people all over the United States. We believe deeply in the value of the information in this book.
