Stress is everywhere and impacts your child, teen, clients, and your ability to parent effectively. Due to poor diets, stressful lives, high expectations, and a lack of understanding on what a child today needs to thrive, the Children’s Health & Teen Summit was created. Over 27 experts including myself are available online during November 3-10th to talk about solutions. My talk: Are Our Children Wired, Disconnected, Unreachable? Will be available all day Wednesday November 5th. I’ll be talking about self esteem and confidence in teens, effects of the internet on the developing brain and behavior, what is a media diet and why do some teens need to go on one.

This an awesome line up. Register and listen for free to The Summit here.
