The teenage years are a storm. This is your anchor.


For millions of young people, the journey through puberty is a turbulent sea of hormonal shifts, neurological changes, and bewildering new emotions. For their parents, it can be a frustrating and heartbreaking mystery.


In Rising Above: Puberty, Mental Health in Adolescents, stoic and applied psychology student Jay Pacheco provides a compassionate and revolutionary guide to the adolescent mind. Blending cutting-edge neuroscience with timeless wisdom, this book demystifies the complex link between puberty and mental health.


Through powerful storytelling and practical advice, you will discover:


  • The real reason behind teenage mood swings and risk-taking.
  • How to build resilience using tools from Stoicism, CBT, and mindfulness.
  • Strategies for navigating social media, peer pressure, and the quest for identity.
  • A clear path toward understanding and supporting teens facing challenges like anxiety and depression.

  • Rising Above is more than a book—it's a toolkit for connection, a manual for resilience, and a beacon of hope. It is the essential companion for any teen, parent, or educator who wants to turn the challenges of adolescence into opportunities for growth.
