Power Adulting Podcast

We’re excited to talk with a special guest on this extra fifth week of March. She’s seen the tough transition from graduation into the wild ride of Adulting anxiety. El will share her struggles, stress, failures, fears, frustrations, and the solutions we are developing just for you.

This is a must listen if you're looking to rock this ‘real life’ Adulting journey!  

Leonard Szymczak offers a review of our soon to be released new book. He is a friend, mentor, psychotherapist and bestselling author of The Roadmap Home: Your GPS to Inner Peace and he’s the award-winning author of Bob Cratchit’s Christmas Carol and Kookaburra’s Last Laugh.

Leonard says, “As a therapist for over 40 years, I know how important it is to have a healthy mindset. The Graduate Project clearly gets it. And what better way to model parents helping young adult children than to have a father/daughter duo presenting tools for success. Dave and El’s amazing, easy-to-follow roadmap empowers individuals with passion to purposefully take charge of their life and make a difference in the world. Thank you for giving us The Graduate Project and changing lives.”

Enjoy this episode and you’ll also learn more about the launch of our new book.

The Graduate Project: A Success Guide for Parents to Help New Adults Rock their ‘Real Life’ Journey.  By El Brownell & Dave Koch

poweradulting.com/growth   FREE Art of Adulting Guidebook & 5-Day Challenge

Mindset is probably more important than any of us can ever imagine! 

Jeff Heggie is a coach who works with business owners as well as elite athletes and mindset is a primary focus for helping his clients reach next level success. If you want to conquer those nasty negative thoughts and up your game then you better take a few minutes to listen to this enjoyable and informative podcast.

You'll learn about:

• Fixed versus growth mindset. 
• Finding what you need to succeed.
• What life balance does and doesn't mean.
• Developing a daily system for high achievement.

Besides that you will hear a heartfelt failure story that will bring tears to your eyes like you did for me.

Here's a book review on The Graduate Project from a life and business coach for rebels. Caterina has a delightful way of explaining how young people feel about Adulting. 

She says, "Growing up today is just different. Society is different. Technology fills our every waking moment and social media, in particular, is responsible for wreaking havoc on young minds. How can we expect our kids to feel confident and capable when they are being told every day, all day, that they aren’t enough? The answer is we learn to parent differently, throw out the idea that we’re done parenting at 18 or 20, and follow Dave and El’s formula for success. 

Dave and El have taken what my psychologist Mom and Dad barely grasped as parents and condensed it down into an easy-to-understand, doable 4-step plan tailor-made for the unique challenges young adults face today. Their book is filled with great life advice, must-know statistics, and a lot of love and stories from a very special father and his daughter. They welcome you into their family with open arms and teach you how to be a better human along the way."

Our guest is a rebel entrepreneur who is brash, controversial, polarizing, and in-your-face but we love her just that way! Caterina Snyder was ‘living the dream’ at the pinnacle of her career and she found herself burned out in a sea of meaninglessness. 

Today you'll learn about building a strong foundation of self, finding your magical genius, understanding where you fit in the world, and how to develop better intuition. Join us to increase your confidence, decrease self-doubt, and figure out what's holding you back.

Here's a family lawyer, transformation coach, and mother of 2 talking about The Graduate Project… 

She said, “Whether your family is celebrating the graduation of a pre-school, high school or university grad… every parent-child team needs this book. This beautiful father-daughter duo has created a masterpiece packed with unbelievably eye-opening information and deep insight that will benefit every family lucky to be touched by it. The content is so relevant to the times, that it powerfully bridges the generational gap, allowing every member of the family unit to feel empowered, seen and supported. Undoubtedly, as a mother myself, I will read and return to this one often. Bravo, El and Dave.”

Thanks for such a glowing review, Radhika. Go to our socials @poweradulting for more info on this exciting new book release.

This is ‘must have’ info for anyone who has struggled to pick a health insurance plan or understand what is covered. Listen to this show so you don't need… a ‘Go Fund Me’ page for unanticipated medical expenses.

Shannon Ware who can be reached at heartcenteredhealthadvisor.com is here to answer your questions & clear up the confusion on health insurance.

We dig into topics like:

How do deductibles actually work?

What does out-of-pocket maximum mean?

Are there really plans that pay you for doctor visits?

You’ll find our chat about self-care, mental health, and mindset very insightful too.

Here's another early book review from a friend…

"Over the past dozen years or so, it's been my pleasure to get to know, and work with, Dave and his daughter, El. When they started their podcast, I was gratified to hear the subject, because in the 21st Century, it's easy for young people to get "lost" in the hustle and bustle of the global economy. Just when you were wondering what to do, Dave and El came along with their podcast, and timely book.”

Thanks for the kind words about The Graduate Project Joe. Find us @poweradulting for deets on the new book release.

You are in for a real treat with an engineer turned investment advisor who previously designed telescopes for outer space. I doubt he'd call himself a rocket scientist but I think he's pretty darn smart… especially with money. 

Jesse Cramer discusses a lot of financial topics in a very relatable manner without dumbing it down. His budgeting technique is so simple El started using it right away. Then we did a deep dive into stock market index funds and Jesse helped us understand the difference between correlated, anti-correlated, and uncorrelated investments. 

He ended with a quote from William Bernstein that the point of diversification “is to not die broke.” Listen in for a ton more financial tips.

Here's another review from an early reader of our soon to be released new book: The Graduate Project…

“What El and Dave have put together is timeless and relevant wisdom from knowledgeable and experienced world class niche professionals. Every parent should consider this book as post college 101. It'll save you time,  money, &, potentially, your relationship with loved ones.”  

~ Festus Amoye ~ Author and Founder of Laddering Your Success

If you like a good yarn then you’re gonna be as thrilled as we were to hear these stories from Festus Amoye because he's full of them… Or at least he's full of something! All kidding aside, after I stopped laughing, I couldn't stop taking notes on how he went from utter tragedy to total triumph and the tons of lessons he gathered along the way. 

What you'll learn today is:

1. The 7 rungs on your ladder to success.
2. What a true hustle mentality really means.
3. And the serious flaws in our education system.

Stay for a good listen and check out what an early reader of our new book… The Graduate Project said,

"El & Dave skillfully summarized in one book the life skills it took me over 10 years to figure out on my own- through many trials, tribulations, blood, sweat & tears. 

These are the real-life adulting breakthroughs they don't teach our youngsters in school. Best of all, they deliver the content in a refreshing, straight-to-the-point narrative, which highlights the only things that matter: love, happiness, & the pursuit of our highest self.”

That's very kind Isa and I hope y’all will keep an eye on our socials @poweradulting for more info on when the book will be released.

You better grab your notepad and pen because if you’re in a relationship—or soon plan to be—then you are definitely going to have some questions answered today.

Here's a few intriguing topics we discussed:

• Can criticism ever be constructive?
• What are safe boundaries for relational growth?
• How do I build confidence in myself and my partner?
• Do we react to relational threats different from physical ones?

If you're looking to create a legacy of loving and lasting intimacy in your relationship then we highly recommend you listen to this show with Dr. Jessica Higgins!

Now, if you like this kind of deep dive into your health, relationships, career, or money then you will also want to keep an eye out for the launch of our new book The Graduate Project which will be out sometime this summer.

Here's what life coach Steph Q said about our adulting Guidebook...

“The Graduate Project is a work of insight for parents to help their children navigate into adulthood. 

Today’s kids are stuck in the messiness of society, technology, and stress-filled anxiety, diminishing their self-confidence to manage the world. This book from this powerful father/daughter duo is a long-time coming! It will inspire families to work together through connection, support, and is the ultimate success guide for parents as their graduate enters adulthood.”

Thanks so much Steph & watch for updates on our socials @poweradulting
