Do you ever feel that knot of anxiety tightening in your stomach just thinking about college admissions? Are you a student wrestling with the fear of rejection, the pressure to be perfect, or the daunting question of "what if I'm not good enough?" Today I want to talk about dealing with this fear and pressure, for both students and their parents when it comes to the college admissions process.

In this episode, I share my own story and the reasons why I coach our students to set big goals, plus I reveal how I shifted my mindset to deal with the pressure and uncertainty - all while growing myself by embracing all the possibilities.

It's my intention that this gives a perspective shift that will help you and your parents navigate the college admissions process with more confidence, less stress, and a renewed sense of purpose!
