Built For Greatness will teach you how to see your teen from a new perspective, helping you:

  • Discover proven strategies for teaching teens how to cope with extreme emotions
  • Learn to talk with your teen about their school struggles in a more meaningful and effective way
  • Create positive results even when dealing with diagnoses such as ADD, ADHD, and anxiety
