What does the day include?
Dr. Karyn will lead you and your teen through 8
experiential fun games geared to strengthen your
relationship. There are no lectures. Both teens and
parents will also get a workbook and/or a funky journal
to help record all the ‘Ahah’ moments throughout the
day.
Who should come to this event?
All parents and youth who want to strengthen their
parent / teen relationship. This event is not geared for
families in crisis but, rather, families who simply want
to make their relationships better!
What age is most appropriate?
Youth from grades 6-12 (ages 11-18) have participated and thoroughly
enjoyed the event. The tools learned can be applied to
all age-groups.
I'm a relative (godparent, grandparent, aunt, uncle)
wanting to better the relationship with my (niece,
granddaughter etc.) Would this still be helpful for us
or is it only for parents and teens?
Yes, this event would be helpful for any adult or parent
wanting to strengthen their relationship with a teen.
Should I bring all my teens or just one? Should my
partner come as well?
Ideally, LIFEBOAT works best with a one-on-one ratio (1
teen & 1 parent or 2 teens & 2 parents). A two-on-one
ratio (2 teens & 1 parent or 2 parents & 1 teen) also
works well. LIFEBOAT activities are interactive and
therefore your family ratios need to be kept smaller.
My teens are reluctant to come. How can I get them on
board?
Explain to your teen that 86% of teens and 92% of
parents rated LIFEBOAT as ‘Outstanding’ last year. Also
print off the LIFEBOAT testimonials and information so
they can read the teen testimonials. Let your teens know
this is not a lecture but an interactive event filled
with mysterious missions geared to better your
relationship!
We also recommend your teen to invite a friend and their
parent to join you. All of a sudden, LIFEBOAT will turn
into a wonderfully fun and meaningful social experience.
Can I purchase my tickets at the door?
No - all registration must be done in advance. Also,
because this event only holds 120 people, we are
expecting to be sold out quickly!
I can’t make next event. When will the next LIFEBOAT event be?
Dr. Karyn only offers LIFEBOAT once a year. So sign up for her newsletter so that you are notified with the next event!
I have a personal question that I’d like to ask
before booking. Who should I call or email?

karyn@drkaryn.com. Either Dr. Karyn or her assistant
will get back to you.
