The Great Brain Remodel of Adolescence: How Contractors & Alligators Empower Understanding Ages 12-24

By Stephanie Smith

You can be confident, effective, and empathetic as the parent, teacher, or mentor of an adolescent

The brain undergoes a profound physical remodel during the life stage of adolescence, approximately between ages 12-24. Understanding this process is critical for their success and your well-being.

In The Great Brain Remodel you'll discover:

How the brain rewires itselfWhy risk becomes paramountWhat rewards matter (and don't)How relationships drive prioritiesWhen external regulation is necessary

Speaker and author Stephanie Smith condenses extensive research into an easy-to-understand format using a home remodel as an analogy. You will meet the crew in charge of the brain's remodel: Mr. Reward, Risk, Ms. Relationship, and the final team member who is eerily similar to Inspector Clouseau from The Pink Panther. Stephanie shares unforgettable stories from her own experience as a teacher, mentor, and mother of five sons which bring the importance of understanding this brain remodel to life.
