REVIEW
"... an outstanding contribution. It is a timely and useful guide for parents, teachers and all involved in helping children and young people develop and prepare to become successful adults. … Using her holistic perspective…she has provided us with very important and useful insights.
The book enables parents in particular to think and plan to support the development of their children from birth to maturity, through school and the workforce. It is written as only a parent, teacher and counselor could– comprehensive, easy to read, but thoughtful and very, very useful!"

Everything is connected!
Thus, we need to intentionally update how we think, use clear communication and collaboration skills across cultures, and use creativity and innovation to live more peacefully. To do this, we need inner strength, skillful and positive actions, hope and faith, relationship building and planning for the unexpected to handle social situations and personal emotions.
This encompasses the attitudes, information and skill sets needed during this confusing and fast-paced time.
We can do this IF we choose to!
Books and resources in the S.A.U.C.E. Series explain and guide you and your children in strengthening the above areas in an easy to understand format connected to everyday life. Workshops with Dr. Mapp also help!
