Teen depression speaker available

Posted by Carolyn Zahnow on January 31, 2011 at 11:09 AM Comments comments (1)


Not only am I a writer but a speaker on the topics of teen depression, drug abuse, suicide prevention and postvention. I’ve updated my speaker sheet so take a peek and see if it’s appealing. Contact me if you’d like to learn more about the save the teens presentation.


I enjoy sharing my story, sad as it is, and if it helps at least one parent stop and take notice of their teen, then I’ve done what I set out to do – save more teens.

Christmas is behind us and a new year approaches.

Americans enjoy spending Christmas together as a family so that removes the potential le...

I recently had the privilege to speak to teens at a local high school at an event that is usually - or hopefully - attended by many parents. I could count the parents on one hand but one teacher had her swim team (I think this is right) attend my presentation. There were several other teens there as well. Some stayed on the back row in the auditorium and some sat on the front row. But they stayed and listened.

Bully Blog

Posted by Carolyn Zahnow on November 28, 2010 at 9:14 PM Comments comments (0)

It is sinful that kids are so terrified and ashamed of being the target of a bully (or multiple bullies) that they either live in fear or as some in recent months have done – end their lives.

I have done several radio interviews now with very caring women. I have posted all the ones I have links for online now so please take some time and listen to one or two - especially if you have not heard me speak. (link at top "Radio Interviews")

 

The conversations take different turns and twists and they are always a pleasure to do. I feel like I'm talking to old friends so far. Most are on blog radio, but one has been live on a Colorado station. I have not noticed an incr...

Packing my bags for North Texas!

I've got 3 events lined up in Flower Mound, TX. I still have time left on Saturday if anyone would like to help me with my book selling/speaking efforts! I'll be there Wednesday 5/12 and leave on Saturday @ 4:30 pm.


I'm very excited about going back to my 'second home.' FloMo feels like my second home because I made so many wonderful friends there and unfortunately, lost my son there. Sometimes I feel like I left Cameron behind there. So being able to go back and visit ...
