The college admission process can be seriously overwhelming. We, as parents and counselors, are here to help our teens make sense of it all and empower them to make good decisions. If you want to launch your child successfully into adulthood (which we all do), it starts with knowing and accepting who they are. We created “Self Accepted" to guide families through the college admissions process while igniting the flame for self-discovery. This bi-monthly podcast will answer the questions we hear parents asking all the time so you’ll be prepared to launch your child into their future.
