The part on building confidence and finding your people really stuck with me—it’s empowering without being overwhelming. It also covers tricky stuff like social anxiety and digital life in a way that feels supportive, not judgmental. It's the kind of resource that can actually make a teen feel seen and more self-assured.

helped my teen break out of her shell

My daughter was struggling with social anxiety at school, so we listened to this together on drives. She started opening up more and even joined a club—huge win! It doesn’t talk down to teens, and it felt really real. Now she asks to relisten to certain parts when she’s feeling nervous. Totally changed our conversations.

Practical and relatable!

I really enjoyed listening to Social Skills for Teens Decoded by Dakota Scott. I don’t have any teens myself, but I am a coach and work with teens all the time, so this is definitely a topic I am interested in. I appreciated the practical approach and relatable tone of this audiobook.

This book is broken down into 8 manageable steps. Each chapter is focused on a real-life situation that teens experience. Scott uses personal stories, motivational quotes, and thoughtful exercises which gives a nice flow to the book.

I highly recommend this audiobook to teens, parents, and/or educators of any type!

Wish I Had This Sooner

As a teen, social stuff can feel like a constant guessing game. This audiobook broke it all down in a way that felt super relatable and not cringey or preachy. The steps are clear, and I actually started using them at school and they work. I feel more confident walking into conversations instead of overthinking everything. If social anxiety or awkward moments have been your norm, this is a seriously helpful guide that just gets it.

Absolutely amazing!

I truly loved this book. It was so fun to listen to, and even though I’m not a teen anymore, it still felt relevant and worth reading. I was a very awkward and strange girl and could definitely have used this when I was younger. It could have saved me some extremely awkward situations.

The narrator was engaging and fun to listen to. She has a very nice voice, so it was easy to just keep listening through to the end. This book is completely worth reading and taking in… No matter the age or situation. It is something that is very needed, even now.
