3 Things you need to know about your changing student
I found an amazing and brilliant person that created a custom planner with college students in mind. She agreed to join me on my podcast this week to talk about how the adolescent brain works, how the role of the parent shifts from teller to coach, and the top 3 ‘adulting skills’ to teach your student before they head off to college. Lesley even threw out a bonus tip on the benefits for a student (and parents) to develop a mindfulness habit to truly take things to the next level.
