10 Questions sits at the intersection of adolescent development, neurodiversity, and future-of-work
10 Questions weaves these frameworks into a guided, parent–teen friendly experience. Behind that simplicity is a blend of:
- Adolescent development – teens are actively building their identity and narrative.
- Transformative Learning Theory – people change when they confront disorienting experiences, reflect, and reframe their stories.
- Double Empathy Problem – miscommunication between neurodivergent and neurotypical people is often mutual, not one-sided.
- Ikigai – meaningful direction comes from aligning what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for.
- 5th Industrial Revolution (5IR) – the future of work depends on human–AI collaboration and cognitive diversity.
Why questions, not quizzes?
10 Questions is built on a simple idea:
when teens and adults have better questions, safer timing, and shared language, they can make better choices together.
Here’s the backbone beneath the experience.
