Shelford presents Dr Justin Coulson - Miss Connection

Date: Tuesday 9 November, 7pm
Cost: Complementary
Location: Zoom

Dr Justin Coulson is one of Australia’s leading parenting experts and is a highly sought-after international speaker and author. He and his wife Kylie are the parents of six daughters. Yes… six (three who are teenagers).

Presenting Miss-Connection to the Shelford community, Justin will demonstrate a guide to surviving and thriving through your daughter's teenage years. If you're looking to understand your teen daughter better and deepen your connection with her, Miss-Connection will take you into the world your teen girl experiences and help you connect with her the way she needs you to. As the girls themselves set out the challenges they face – with social media, friends, relationships, identity – you will find connection and solutions.

There has never been a better time to be a teenage girl. But perhaps there has never been a harder time. We know that connection is at the heart of our teenage daughters' happiness. And we do our best to have strong connections with our girls. But despite this, we often feel a disconnect. Or perhaps, more precisely, a mis-connect.
