Raising a teenager often means navigating the push-and-pull between guidance and independence. How can parents scaffold their child’s growth without micromanaging—and set them up for success in high school, college, and beyond?
Join us for a panel discussion with Ellen Galinsky, acclaimed author of The Breakthrough Years and leading expert on parenthood and adolescent development, clinical psychologist and ADHD specialist Dr. Eliot Goldman, and Deveren Fogle, CEO and co-founder of Uluru, a novel executive function platform dedicated to helping young people build essential life skills. Together, they’ll explore how executive function skills—like planning, time management, decision-making, and self-regulation—lay the foundation for agency and autonomy in adolescence.
This conversation will offer practical strategies for parents of teens in grades 6–12, as well as those navigating the transition to college. You’ll walk away with tools to empower your teen to take charge in their life while still feeling supported along the way.
