DESIREE PANLILIO, an author, and\\xa0the founder and owner of "Encouraging Teens", will join us to discuss her work with teenagers. As she says, \'Parents often struggle with \\u201cconnecting\\u201d with their teen.

Two Friends? Good Friend? Bad Friend?: Teen\'s Guide to Creating Lifelong Friendships".
\\n\\nFROM HER WEBSITE:
\\n\\n"Prior to its official founding, Encouraging Teens was the passion and brain-child of Desiree Panlilio. As a former nurse, medical manager, and spousal mentor at the U.S. Navy\\u2019s Command Leadership School in Newport, RI, Desiree honed the skills needed for her future role as a mother and community leader. It was through her own teen-rearing experiences that she began developing the tools and communicative framework that would be employed in Encouraging Teens\\u2019 effective seminars.
\\n\\nAfter receiving a master\\u2019s in Human Services Counseling with a focus in life coaching, Desiree began sharing her knowledge through social collaborations and platforms for the sole benefit of thousands of viewers and readers. Through her success in the digital space, she saw the need for a more robust approach that could create better access to her coaching and practice methods, while creating community with other teens.\\xa0\\xa0
\\n\\nToday, Encouraging Teens offers several avenues for teens to discover where they are, who they want to be, and how they\\u2019d like their future to look.
\\n\\nThrough dynamic and interactive seminars, one-on-one coaching or group coaching, and community-structured \\u201cpods,\\u201d both teens and parents acquire and develop better communication skills. Through better communication we can increase mutual respect, foster collaboration and, most importantly, build their relationship\\u2013and their relationships with others."
