First league game today went 5 for 5 and hit for the cycle with 13 total bases and a bomb. It’s great to be back.

Adolescents are up against a billion-dollar machine designed to hijack their minds.
📘 How We Grow Up is my message to teens and their parents about protecting attention, rebuilding connection, and taking back what matters most.

How We Grow Up is based on deep research, real conversations with top scholars, and years of reporting. Skip the pop psych takes. This is the truth about what’s really happening inside the adolescent brain.

Denver, you showed up.
From signing the vaunted Tattered Cover guest book (always gives a chill) to a night of deep questions, meaningful conversation, and a few moments with my dad and the Book TV crew — it was a night I won’t forget.

Hey, Colorado…Tonight: be part of a Book TV taping of #HowWeGrowUp, a book about adolescence the surgeon general called “essential reading”
My talk starts at 6. I have surprising & hopeful science to share. Bring the teens, disconnect, fill your brain with facts. And be on TV!

It’s not just about #teens. It’s about all of us and the essential connection between #generations and what it takes to understand each other.
