The Impactful Parent

A practical guide to transition high schoolers to adulthood. 

Transitioning from high school to adulthood has a lot of components and Rob Finlay’s book,

Hey Dad…: Everything You Should’ve Learned About Life (But Didn’t) is a humorous and practical guide to the real-world lessons every young adult needs but few are taught. It’s also a treasure trove of advice for parents trying to help their kids transition into adulthood without losing their minds.
From managing money to landing a job, renting an apartment, or avoiding costly mistakes like putting diesel in a gas engine (true story!), this book delivers relatable stories and actionable advice for families navigating the chaos of “adulting.”
What Your Listeners Will Gain:
  • Insightful Parenting Tips: How to guide your young adult children without micromanaging their every move.
  • Relatable Humor: Stories of parenting fails, hilarious missteps, and the universal struggles of adulthood.
  • Actionable Advice: Real-world solutions from 30+ experts on finances, career building, and independence.

Hey Dad… is the book every parent should read before their child leaves the house. Whether you’re guiding a first-time apartment renter or answering panicked late-night calls, Rob Finlay’s wisdom will help make the transition smoother (and funnier) for everyone involved.

It takes a lot to run a family! Here are a few products I recommend.
