Straight Talk for Life is a no-nonsense, hard-hitting guide for teens and young adults—written in an Aussie voice that sounds more like a wise uncle than a school textbook.

Inside, The Barra Man covers:

• Respect, resilience, and how to spot a dodgy crowd
• Social media and the stuff that stays online forever
• Work ethic, money, and managing your time like a grown-up
• Mental health, asking for help, and looking out for your mates
• Setting goals, building habits, and taking control of your future

It’s built for real life, not just the classroom.

 “Perfect for…”

• Teenagers who need a reset or a rocket
• Parents who want a conversation starter that isn’t a lecture
• Teachers looking for practical life-skills content
• Youth groups, sports clubs, and camps
