In this episode, I’m joined by Cristina, a former client who is now out of college, working as a mechanical engineer, living on her own, and building her adult life.

Cristina and I talk about what it really feels like to launch into college and young adulthood. We discuss the excitement of freedom, the shock of change, finding your people, rebuilding confidence after heartbreak, setting boundaries, and why even capable young adults need support.

One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is Cristina’s perspective on coaching. She shares what it was like to have a neutral adult who was not her parent, someone she could say the messy things to, sort through her thoughts with, and begin to trust herself again.

This conversation fits perfectly with my Resilient Launch work because getting ready for college is not just about dorm rooms, laundry, schedules, and grades. It is about helping young people build emotional regulation, self-trust, resilience, confidence, and the ability to keep going when life feels uncertain.

If you are parenting a high school senior, college student, or young adult who looks like they are doing fine but may still need support, this episode will help you understand why that support matters.

Struggling with anxiety in your family? If anxiety is causing tension, fights, or disconnect in your home, you don’t have to face it alone.
