6 Steps to Navigating Major Change Like a Pro (a Hilarious Guide to Back-to-School and College Drop-Off Season!)
Descripción del Episodio
In today’s episode, you are getting a relatable and hilarious guide to navigating major transitions like a pro.
Join me in a real and raw conversation with my friends and colleagues, Amy and Lynne, as we unpack the major mistakes and 6 lessons learned from "horrible" college drop-off experiences (both our own and the ones we had with our kids) and the fear that comes with any major transition in your life.
Whether you’ve got kids or not, these 6 lessons apply to you. Everyone is going through some kind of transition right now: back to school, back to work, and dropping out of college. It’s a time of saying goodbye, of saying hello to new chapters, and of helping people move into new dorms and apartments and transition to new jobs or a new grade.
That means it is the perfect time to learn the 6 lessons I learned (the hard way) about managing big life transitions without losing your sh*t.
Listen and Learn:
- The RIGHT way to empower someone who is drowning in self-doubt.
- The #1 thing to say to help anyone move forward with confidence.
- The 4 words that will help you or your child commit to change.
- A science-backed "bridging" tool to help any child feeling nervous.
- The 2 most important qualities you have to let your child borrow from you.
- Why feeling scared and anxious before a big change is mentally healthy.
