Summary of Presentations Delivered
This week, I had the privilege of speaking at Salesian High School to deliver a powerful vaping awareness presentation that shed light on the dangers of teen vaping. Throughout the day, students attended engaging presentations that used magic, illusions, stories, and more to reveal the truth about the vaping industry—who’s behind it, why teens are their prime target, and the real health risks involved. As the vaping awareness speaker I also explored common triggers that lead teens to vape, empowering students with knowledge to make informed choices.
In the evening, parents gathered for a separate session designed to equip them with the tools to recognize signs of vaping, prevent their children from starting, and intervene effectively if they discover their child is vaping. The discussion provided valuable insights and actionable strategies to help parents navigate this growing issue.
For parents who were unable to attend in person, we have made a recorded version of the presentation available for the next 30 days. The video is embedded in this post (see below)—simply use the access code provided by the school to watch.
We encourage all families to take advantage of this opportunity to stay informed and support our students in making healthy choices. If you have any questions or need additional resources, please reach out to the school. Together, we can work toward a vape-free future for our teens!

Below you can find some additional resources for parents. Here you can access a quick guide to better understand of vaping nicotine as well as guides to understand best practices of quitting nicotine and also what to expect with nicotine withdrawal. In addition to vaping nicotine, there are also quick guides for parents to understand marijuana/THC and the teen brain along with a guide on “greening out” which can be a side effect of THC use.
