#68 Lost, Stuck, or Stalling? How the R.E.A.C.H. Toolkit Helps You Get Back on Target

College life often feels like a tug-of-war between what we want to do and what we actually do.  In this episode, we learn about the “Act with Purpose” skill. We discuss how to identify your internal GPS, navigating where your values and goals intersect, and learning how to tell if you are on-track or veering off-ramp. Real-life student examples bring procrastination struggles into focus, while Sarah and Liz provide practical tools—like acting as if and gradual exposure—to help students move from avoidance to purposeful action.

You'll learn: 

• How to identify and act on your core values.
• How to recognize the difference between productive self-care and procrastination.
• Practical strategies to overcome procrastination and build motivation.
• How small, purposeful actions can improve confidence, social skills, and emotional regulation.
• Awareness tools for aligning your daily behaviors with long-term goals.
