Synopsis

A Practical Guide for Living Well While Gifted

Gifted people are often praised for what they can do while receiving very little guidance for how to actually live well.

They may struggle with perfectionism, intensity, motivation, sensitivity, anxiety, social challenges, or feeling misunderstood by the people around them. Parents and teachers often see the potential, but are left wondering how to truly support the whole child.

Living Gifted bridges that gap.

Through 52 practical, thoughtful lessons, educator and gifted expert Lisa Van Gemert shares strategies for building a healthy, balanced, and meaningful gifted life.


Readers will learn how to:

  • Better understand the gifted brain
  • Encourage resilience and emotional health
  • Foster motivation and purpose
  • Develop practical life and relationship skills
  • Support gifted children without increasing pressure
  • Create habits that lead to long-term success and well-being


Unlike books that focus only on academics or achievement, focuses on the day-to-day realities of gifted life, including the emotional and social experiences that often go unseen.

Each chapter includes:

  • Real-life examples
  • Reflection opportunities
  • Actionable ideas
  • Encouragement grounded in experience and research


Written in a warm, relatable style with honesty and humor, this book is ideal for parents, educators, counselors, and gifted individuals themselves.
