Raising stronger young people for the world of tomorrow.

Every teenager carries a spark. I helps them unleash it; coming home to who they are and growing stronger from the inside out: grounded, connected, and ready for anything. I speak directly to the teenager, while helping parents understand them and stay close.

I'm Tony Griffin, an author, speaker and coach. Through books, talks and sharing insightful, inspiring resources, I support teenagers and their parents. The future runs through our teenagers, and my work is to help build a stronger generation.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

  • Jack Goodman, Age 19

    “This book is amazing. Things that need to be said and heard are now down on paper so it will do great favours for anyone who reads it. Overall I think this books makes me feel seen and heard and understood because I can relate back to it myself and it felt like it was written just for me at some points. I could relate so much and I’m sure everyone else could too if they read it. It’s a good wake up call that can put things in perspective for you very gently but tells you to get a grip! It felt very honest and genuine. I didn’t feel like it was trying to teach us and change our ways. That is the one thing teenagers have too much of.”

  • Dermot Healy, School Principal

    Tony Griffin visited our school to speak with our 5th and 6th-year students. From the moment he began speaking until his final words, his talk was truly inspirational. He captivated the students with his personal journey, sharing the highs and lows of his life in a way that deeply resonated with them. Despite addressing over 120 5th-year students and around 80 6th-year students in separate sessions, Tony was completely at ease, and the students were fully engaged, hanging on to his every word.
