Parenting Mess to Launch Success: 30 Challenges to Build Lifelong Influence and Relationships With Your Children (Mess to Success)

Parenting Mess to Launch Success: 30 Challenges to Build Lifelong Influence and Relationships With Your Children is the third book in the Mess to Success series. Following Management Mess to Leadership Success: 30 Challenges to Become the Leader You Would Follow (2019), and Marketing Mess to Brand Success: 30 Challenges to Transform Your Organization's Brand (and Your Own) (2021), Parenting Mess to Launch Success focuses on 30 specific challenges the lead author, Scott Jeffrey Miller, has faced as a reluctant (hostage) parent to three sons after a life of intended bachelorhood. As the age-old story goes, man meets woman (at the gym, of course), woman is awesome in every way, then along comes marriage and three sons in five years. Thatcher, who is the oldest son, has joined his father as an author and adds colorful (truthful) commentary on each challenge from his own unvarnished point of view.

If parenting is your life mission and calling, and it brings you purpose and unbridled joy every day-THIS IS NOT YOUR BOOK. Delete it from your cart and instead buy Scott's most recent book, Career on Course: 10 Strategies to Take Your Career From Accidental to Intentional, as when your kids abandon you for their own lives in a few years, you'll need something to do, and your career will likely fill that gap.

However, if you've ever struggled with parenting-meaning every day you curse, sob, or seriously question how you could drive to Mexico and never be tracked or found (like you've not thought of this enticing alternative)-then be sure your Amazon Prime account is current so you can buy this book and have it arrive today.

Parenting Mess to Launch Success features father-and-son author team, Scott and Thatcher Miller, discussing in hilarious, vulnerable, and often uncomfortable detail common parenting issues that we all face daily but never took a course in or had zero training for. Raw, real, relatable stories give validation and hope of survival for anyone wishing (like Scott has) for an iron skillet to fall on their head and release them from the parenting nightmare for good.

Please buy this book, as Thatcher and his brothers need the royalties (and hopefully movie rights) to fund their future therapy sessions and mindfulness retreats in Costa Rica.

This book is epic.

Need to laugh? Need to cry? Need to release your anger and pent-up hostility toward your children?

Scott Jeffrey Miller is a highly sought-after speaker and moderator, a 7X Wall Street Journal and Amazon bestselling author, and host of the world's largest weekly leadership podcast On Leadership with Scott Miller. Scott was a twenty-five-year FranklinCovey associate, serving as Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President of thought leadership, and continues to advise the company on a variety of topics. Parenting Mess to Launch Success is Scott's third book in the Mess to Success series, and he will soon release his ninth book, The New Power Skills. Scott is a founding partner in the Gray + Miller Agency (GMA), the fastest-growing speaking, literary, and talent agency in the nation, with nearly 300 creators under representation. Scott and his wife Stephanie live in Salt Lake City, Utah, with three sons: Thatcher, Smith, and Wentworth.

Thatcher Ford Miller is 14 and the oldest of the three Miller sons at the time of this writing. He is a rising freshman at Judge Memorial Catholic High School in Salt Lake City, Utah, after spending the majority of his school career at Rowland Hall, where he excelled in debate, English, writing, and speech. He is an avid reader and tennis player (currently playing seven days a week in an intensive tennis program at the Salt Lake Swim and Tennis Center). During his transfer from Rowland Hall to Judge Memorial, he tested into multiple Honors and Advanced Placement classes (accepting most of them, as one of his favorite pastimes is "doing nothing" and his least favorite being overly committed). Thatcher was born in Park City, Utah, and has travelled the world extensively visiting nine countries, with his favorite destination being Sorrento, Italy. Although he's not focused yet on a particular college or major, he's quite certain, like his father (and coauthor), that he's not pursuing a career as a chemist, an engineer, an architect, or anything that requires algebra-which is generally a four-letter word in Millerland. Parenting Mess to Launch Success is Thatcher's debut as a published author. Look for future works under his name.
