Changing The Narrative Workshop

Tavon Parker has exemplified a willingness to continuously overcome obstacles and change the narrative.  Whether it was losing his scholarship, going to jail, or having a failing business, he has always shown resiliency and a commitment to continue to fight back and overcome whatever was in his path. Through his book, CHANGING THE NARRATIVE, Tavon provides relatable stories that will help to magnify the struggles that most of us go through in our communities. Incorporating the main takeaways from his book, with the goal of helping others in their day to day lives to change whatever narratives they’re facing, came the CHANGING THE NARRATIVE WORKBOOK. Tavon's book and workbook are both used to facilitate CHANGING THE NARRATIVE WORKSHOPS in schools across Pennsylvania.

The Changing The Narrative Workbook creates from a trauma-informed approach to mitigating delinquent and risky behavior—research shows that children who experience a high number of Adverse Childhood  Experiences (ACEs) are more likely to have negative health outcomes, unstable work  experiences, and unhealthy relationships and attachments. Being aware of and working to  reduce ACEs in the community and the family has a direct impact on long-term violence reduction and can/will increase the likelihood of success for participants of this workshop.

Be Your Own Boss (B.Y.O.B) is a workbook guide for both new and experienced entrepreneurs, authored by Tavon Parker. Being your own boss offers a unique and empowering experience that transcends traditional employment structures. When you take the reins of your own business, you have the freedom to shape your destiny, make decisions that align with your vision, and pursue your passions. The autonomy to set your own schedule and work on projects that genuinely resonate with you can lead to a more fulfilling and balanced lifestyle. However, being your own boss also comes with its set of challenges. The responsibility of making critical decisions, managing finances, and navigating uncertainties can be daunting. Yet, the sense of accomplishment and the potential for unlimited growth and success make the journey worthwhile. Embracing the role of an entrepreneur requires resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to learn from both successes and setbacks. Ultimately, the journey of being your own boss is a dynamic and rewarding adventure that allows you to carve out your path in the professional world.

The Be Your Own Boss Workbook is used to facilitate the Be Your Own Boss Workshop, as it includes an evidence-based curriculum created for a starting entrepreneur or one with years of experience. Including ELA and math concepts, this workbook is perfect for those young and old, and is taught by Tavon Parker across schools in Pennsylvania.
