The Almost Empty Nest—Letting Go, Redefined: Parenting Teens and Finding Yourself Again—with Small Jar Coach

Parenting Teens in the College Process—Three Lessons That Go Far Beyond Early Decision | Ep 207


Listen Later

As moms, we hit so many moments where our big kids put themselves out there. We find ourselves holding our breath, hoping it all works out...and also really worried about what will happen if it doesn't. 

In this episode, I share three powerful lessons I learned during the college process with my sons, and how those lessons apply far beyond college admissions—to job interviews, tryouts, auditions, internships, and every season where we’re invited to practice letting go.

You’ll learn how to deal with the helplessness of not being able to influence the outcome, and how to support your big kid and even strengthen your connection in the moments that matter most. The lessons you'll takeaway will give you confidence to navigate all of the twists and turns of the road ahead.
