Hi Reader! Quick reminder. Today is the last day to purchase the VIP Pass for the Leadership Life Skills Summit before the price increases to nearly double. If you’re anything like me, you probably registered for the Free Pass with good intentions… and then life got busy. Maybe you caught one or two sessions. Maybe none at all. Instead of feeling behind, here’s another option. Get the VIP Pass!! It gives you lifetime access so you can: Having a 17- and 20-year-old, some of the talks I’ve appreciated most focus on areas that truly shape adulthood: When Kids Stop Thinking for Themselves: The Hidden Cost of AI in Education — helping teens strengthen independent thinking. And of course, my two sessions: The Communication Code for Teens — equipping teens to advocate for themselves, earn trust, and develop leadership skills that work in every relationship. The CALM Approach for Parents — shifting from control to mentorship so your teen learns to think independently while your relationship stays strong. If lifetime access would lower your stress and help you move from consuming content to applying it, today is the day. 👉 https://michelle29--kerrybeck.thrivecart.com/lsls-2026-vip-pass/ The price increases on Saturday! Warmly, P.S. My bonus for VIP purchasers is a full Masterclass on Building Confidence in Your Tween & Teen, taught alongside a licensed mental health counselor. |

Hi Reader! The Leadership Life Skills Summit begins tomorrow! If you’ve registered, I hope you’re looking forward to the conversations. If you haven’t yet, there’s still time. High school and teen years can feel high pressure. But underneath the academics are skills that truly shape adulthood: Emotional regulationProblem solvingCommunicationExecutive functionSelf-advocacy These are not built in one dramatic moment. They grow slowly through supportive relationships, intentional conversations...
Hi Reader! I was reading an APA resource this week about homeschooling and the section on high school stood out to me. It described the high school years as a time when students want purpose and agency. They want to make an impact. They often propose ideas that feel idealistic or unrealistic, but those ideas matter deeply to them. I've seen this in my own kids. The article goes on to say that without strong problem-solving and social skills, teens are likely to struggle in postsecondary...
