Somewhere along the way, getting into the “right” college became proof that childhood had gone well. Ana Homayoun, author of Getting In Is Not Enough, joins Ginny Yurich to challenge that faulty finish line and look at what actually prepares kids for a good life. They talk about adaptability, focus, friendship, executive functioning, perfectionism, energy, free time, and why kids need room to build their own blueprint instead of spending childhood checking all the right boxes. This conversation is a reminder that our kids need more than an impressive college résumé. They need the skills and confidence to find their way in a world that keeps changing.
