Cathy Adams with Dr. John Duffy

NOTE: Attendees in person will receive a free copy of Adams’ new book, “Rescuing our Girls: How Real Conversations Shape Our Daughters’ Lives, Help Them with Teen Challenges, and Remind Them That They Matter.”

This compelling conversation will provide strategies for engaging in relevant conversations with compassion and a willingness to learn. Adams’ methods for meaningful listening and taking action will help parents and caregivers support teens in strengthening their mental and emotional skills to achieve the fulfilling lives they deserve.

Teenage mental health challenges can feel isolating for both parent and child. Teens may feel uncomfortable sharing serious struggles for fear of being misunderstood or feeling rejected. Adams and Duffy will share real world insights on being the role model kids need, and they will explain how being genuine can open doors to true happiness. Participants will learn how connection can ease challenges and ensure a healthy and trusting relationship as kids grow.
