Every day, another Millennial becomes an adult.

at home or in school are gone, and they may feel unprepared to face what comes
next.

compelling evidence from research, “JP” Pokluda lays out a roadmap
for how to navigate life as an adult, addressing topics like
– friendships and dating
– career and money management
– interpersonal conflict
– controlling anxiety
– recovering from addiction
– and discovering your purpose on this earth
Anyone struggling to find a footing in the world of adult
life will welcome this witty, non-patronizing guide.
