Welcome aboard! My name is Lakeshia Williams, the author of, “The First Time Adult”. What originally started out as a book for my own children has grown into something bigger and more impactful. I realized that other young adults and parents of young adult children could benefit from my book. However, this blog goes beyond the book, in an effort of helping parents and their young adult children strengthen and maintain healthy connections through this transition.

Becoming a subscriber of my blog means you’ll receive a regular dose of insights and resources tailored to make this adulting transition as smooth and successful as possible.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

1. Articles: Get the best tips, advice, wisdom, and more about becoming an adult and parenting adult children delivered straight to your inbox.

2. Exclusive Content: From time to time, I'll send you exclusive content that's only available to my subscribers. Look out for deep dives into essential life skills, bonus materials, and interactive content.

3. Community Highlights: Discover stories from fellow members of the community. Learn from their experiences and share your own journey.

4. Special Offers: As a valued subscriber, you’ll receive early notifications about new offerings, events, and opportunities .

I believe that adulthood shouldn’t just be survived, rather you’re entering it for the first time or helping your child navigate the journey, —it should be conquered. And you're not alone in this. If you ever have questions, feedback, or need a bit of guidance, feel free to reply to any of my emails. I’m here to help!

Thanks for joining me. Let's make these adulting adventures as rewarding as possible!
