Matilda Walsh
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Congratulations, the day has finally arrived! You’re officially a GROWN UP! Which is great in theory, but maybe a bit more stressful in practise…
Here’s what’s coming towards you very quickly...
You’re going to have to learn how to cook, clean, find a job, fix your car, live away from home and manage your money. You’ll need to eat the right stuff (sorry, but noodles 24/7 just won’t cut it), ace the job interview, impress your boss and fix your flat tire on Monday morning so you get to work or college on time. Ideally you’ll make more money than you spend, make new friends, maybe even start your own business and create a life you love.
These are all the important life skills we need to know as an adult, that we're NOT taught in school!
Right, don’t panic! You’re in the right place. This book will share with you the proven tips & strategies to make your adulting days the best days of your life.
