I think Life Skills for Young Adults is something every teen or young adult should hear. It covers a lot of the everyday things that don’t always get taught in school—like managing money, basic cooking, job interviews, and even how to stay organized. The tone is friendly and not preachy, which I appreciated. I wish I had this when I first moved out on my own.

Just what you need for the real world

An excellent book that addresses subjects not taught in the classroom. Some excellent tips on creating a budget, handling money, fostering its growth, and cultivating enduring connections with others. The book covers a number of key topics that are never taught in school, such as time management, cooking, and budgeting, and Nicholas Pitcher's narration is easy to follow. It's simple, easy to understand, and very helpful. Overall, it's a good resource for young adults attempting to navigate life outside of school, while certain sections could need some more in-depth discussion.

I gave this to my best friend’s daughter as a graduation gift, and she’s been loving it. She said the budgeting section helped her figure out how to plan for rent and groceries without freaking out, and the student loan tips made her feel way less lost. I flipped through it before wrapping it and was honestly impressed—it covers everything from building credit to setting boundaries in relationships. She’s already using the job interview tips and even mentioned how the emotional strength part (like handling anxiety and rejection) made her feel more ready for real life. Definitely not your average “congrats grad” book—it’s actually useful.

Best grad gift!

My teens actually wanted to keep listening, which never happens. This audiobook sparked real conversations about budgeting, job interviews, and even laundry (yep, laundry!). It’s not preachy or boring—just solid, helpful stuff delivered in a way that clicks with them. I’m glad we listened together. Felt like a win for both of us.

This audiobook is a roadmap through the chaos of early adulthood. At least ot was for me. It covers everything that school missed: managing money without fear, navigating job hunts, and handling the less glamorous parts like laundry and car care. Sure, my parent tried to teach me those skills, but who listens to parens? (Actually, it's not a bad idea as I now realize). The practical advice in this book made me take control, step by step. I liked the blend of emotional resilience with real-world know-how. It builds confidence and communication skills that carry you farther in life. I recommend it to anyone who is feeling lost at the start of adulthood.
