Covering everything from time management and communication to budgeting and emotional well-being, the book avoids sounding preachy and instead offers relatable advice in an easy-to-digest format.

Prepare your Teen!

A very practical, down to earth perspective on the essentials for teens. It highlights many important themes in life that teens take for granted and if left neglected, can bite them during their transition to adulthood. Themes such as nutrition, financial skills, and time management are examples of the themes included. A must-have to prepare your teen for the real world!

Actually Helpful

I didn’t expect to like this, but it surprised me in a good way. It talks about stuff we don’t really learn in school—like how to stop wasting time, deal with awkward social stuff, and not be broke all the time. It didn’t feel like an adult lecturing me, which I appreciated. The way everything was explained actually made sense, and I’ve already started using a few tips. If you’re like me and want to get your life together (even just a little), this is totally worth a listen.

Relevant & engaging.

This book teaches the topics our kids never learn in school and we often forget to teach until it's too late. It addressed topics like financial literacy, time management and productivity, health and wellness, and career exploration among others. Great conversations with my teen and how I dealt with these topics and wished I had this book as a young adult. A great gift idea.

Wish I Had This Years Ago

Got this for my teen, but I ended up skimming through it myself and wow, it's packed with the kind of stuff I wish schools actually taught. My son actually read it (huge win), and he’s already using the tips to stay on top of homework and budget his allowance. It doesn’t talk down to him, which I think made all the difference. Feels like a solid starting point for building confidence in real world stuff.

Helps me understand better as a teacher

As a private coach working with teens, I’m always on the lookout for resources that help me click with them—and this one delivers. Glow-Up Life Skills for Teens is refreshingly relevant, packed with useable tips, and written in a voice they can relate to. I’ve already recommended it to several of my clients to support the work we do in sessions. From managing anxiety to setting real goals, it hits all the right notes.
