Episode 31- Mental Health and College Admissions

“A mind is a terrible thing to waste.” - United Negro College Fund We are not well. Never have been and maybe never will be. PTSD from a variety of places can obstruct our progress or we can seek help, heal and move in our purpose.  Dr. Bianca Busch helps students and families to do just that. As the “College Psychiatrist” (yes, that’s her website and IG) she is passionate about tending to those in need during these tender years of 18-23. Stern and compassionate, she deftly shares a message of hope and guidance that we all need to listen to. Here’s an excerpt from our interview about how to successfully support students.   “We as parents, must learn to compromise with our teens. Rarely will a student get everything they want, just as a parent will not get everything they want. The goal for a parent must be to partner with their student and have open communication, with an understanding that the student’s social and emotional well-being is most important.” Jewels. Gems. TRUTH!!!!  Dr. Busch is a must-hear interview that will help us all to change our perspective and approach to how we redefine success in the college admissions process.
