unique, creative and out-of-the-box insight on helping parents and
teens bridge their communication gap, shedding the light on what
it's like being a teen in the 21st century today and hoping to
create a world full of Well-Rounded Teens. After losing his Dad at
12 years old, being raised by a single mom, undergoing heart

Why does my teenager not seem to care or understand that good
grades are important? How can I create a win-win compromise with my
teen when trying to solve a problem? Why does my teenager argue
with everything I say? What really goes on today with the average

to me when they became a teenager? How can I get my teenager to

help boost my teenager's self-confidence or find out what motivates
them? What are some things that I can do to help my teenager find

"purpose" as all teens do, Caleb mom, Shelley Mitchell - also a
Business Coach specializing in ADHD/ADD, took him to a weekend
entrepreneurship workshop (3 Days To Cash/ by Loral Langemeier)

parents and teens. Caleb's goal is to inspire teens and parents
alike to have open, fun, healthy relationships that create
"win-win" results for everyone and to also know that no matter how
