First time I've seen a list like this - maybe there's something in here for your teen?

Still a way to go until it's comparable to adult self-help and development though!

15 Wise and Witty Self-Help Books for Teens | Book Riot These self-help books for teens are full of useful resources and advice for young adults as they negotiate life and relationships.

This was fun to do, so a big thank you to Kirstin and Monika for joining me to discuss some of the common challenges teens they work with experience, and crucially, provide some great advice and tips along the way.

Many of these can be issues they are facing for the first time, as they navigate all the ups and downs of being a teen.

So, whether you have your own or you work with young people, it's well worth a listen!

FIO Episode 4 - Common Challenges & Tips to Overcome - The FiguringItOut Podcast Support & Advice me as I chat to Monika & Kirsten about the common challenges they see in their work, supporting teenagers as they navigate growing up, school, and the massive number of choices that come your way.

✨ So folks, you ready to get involved? ✨

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to look at each of the following 4 podcast artwork options and vote for the best graphic and best text/wording.

Remember, we need it to appeal to teens and/or parents/carers/advisers of teens... kinda tricky balance! 🎯

I'll pair up the winners and add them to the podcast players... easy peasy 😳

🥇 What do you think is the best / strongest graphic?
🥇 What do you think is the best / strongest wording?

Vote by putting the number for each in the comment box below 👇

(this could really die on it's a*** if no one votes lol, but let's give it a go anyway 🤞)

On your marks... 🚦🏁

P.S. If you think none of them work, you can say that too!

⚠️ Warning 🚨

You’re going to see more from me & FIO in your feed over the coming weeks... so now’s your chance to run away, unlike, unfollow, do what you gotta do 😂 🏃🏽‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️

If you decide to stick around, great! 🎉

Today’s teens need support more than ever... self-awareness, self-belief, self-care; there’s never been a more pressing time for our young people 👫🤗

So whether you’ve got teens of your own, work with them, or just remember your own challenges, it’s great to have you on board 👍🏻

Look out for the first ask... and a big thank you from me in advance 🙏

Cheers

JJ

Hello 👋, it's been a while since posting anything on FIO so hope you're all well.

Although quiet, I've been busy acting on the feedback from the first half of last year; adding more practical content to the website 🖥 (coming soon), recording other podcast episodes 🎧, and developing a range of FIO E-Books 📖

More in future posts and see you again soon 😃

Cheers

Feeling like your world has turned upside down? Don't worry, everyone does!

The good news is you will get through this and be stronger as a result, but how can we better support each other in the meantime?

What stories, tips and advice can you share...?

Getting through this together It's a weird, worrying and difficult time right now, but we can still move forward and come out stronger on the other side! No one person has all the answers...

Like you, my nieces and nephews are feeling adrift and anxious about what happens next. It's a difficult and worrying time. 😟

But what if we build a community to help our teens get through this? A support network with stories, shared experiences, tips, advice and ideas! 💪💡💞

I’m pulling one together so to share yours, check out the post below... 👀🙏

TOGETHER WE CAN OVERCOME — FiguringItOut.me Let's work together to share stories, tips and activities to build a community of support for our teens, helping them to get through this.
