Mike Donahue is a youth specialist, author, speaker and popular podcast host and on January 28, he will be at Gothenburg Public Schools to share his message. He has been speaking to and mentoring young people for over three decades. He has worked with young people all over the world including the United States, Asia, South America, and Europe. He is the founder and director of Value Up, a Non-profit company dedicated to helping young people know and see their true intrinsic value.
Mike has come to understand that so many teen issues are directly related to how students view themselves. If a student believes they have high intrinsic value and identify with that high value, they will make life choices that match their perceived value.
Parents are encouraged to join a student session if it works for them. The schedule for the day is as follows:
