    What’s Shocked Us Most About Going on College Tours

    I can’t believe we’re saying this, but we are looking at colleges with our daughter, Caroline. One day, you’re dropping your kid off at preschool, and the next, they’re getting ready to fly the coop.  That’s literally how fast it’s gone.  In this episode, John and I talk about taking those first college tours, what we’re learning along the way, and what shocked us most about the process. (Any guesses on who handled themselves best during the tours?)  Plus, the one thing we’ve done which has focused the direction and strategy on which schools we should be looking at.  We also get real about how much we should be involved as parents and whether we’re projecting our own desires a bit too much on our kids.  Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It.  Listen in to learn more : (05:58) The value of College Tours and Getting LOST! . (13:28) College Decision-Making and Financial Considerations (21:41) Choosing the Right College Together With Your Child  (26:42) Parenting, College Choices, and Reflection In this episode, we are diving into changes in the college tour and application process over the years, the financial investment families and students make in college, being careful not to project our own dreams onto our kids’ college choices, weighing pros and cons of each school (and writing it down!), distance as a factor in choosing a college, and how fast time goes as we raise our kids.

    Mothers-in-law And FiguringOut Whose House We’re Going To For The Holidays (with Rachel Awtrey)

    The reality is that 95% of us will be with our families over the holidays. So, how do you determine whose house you’re going to? And, how do you navigate the in-law relationships, particularly the one with your mother-in-law? I’ll be honest… I overheard some women at my local gym talking about the stress of navigating holiday travel and their in-laws, and I thought to myself, “We HAVE to talk about this.” Plus, a lot of you have reached out asking to have this conversation. So, about your mother-in-law… I was shocked to learn that over half of women are either satisfied or HIGHLY satisfied with the relationship they have with their mothers-in-law! Confusing, right? Because that’s not the narrative we hear…so, maybe the relationship gets a bad rap?  To talk about it all, I’ve invited mom, podcaster and new friend Rachel Awtrey to the podcast for an honest conversation about the complexities of determining whose house we go to. Plus, we also dive into the deep end talking about mothers-in-law and our loving advice for any mothers-in-law out there.  This is definitely a conversation that’s not happening enough. But life happens. So, Let’s Talk About It!
