College isn’t the only path after high school, but it’s still the one a lot of kids (and their parents) expect to take. So how do you prepare them for that step, or for any step into adulthood? What really matters before they leave the house? Lisa and the Council of Moms—Shima Baughman, Cimony Mahoney, and La Beene—talk through the big picture of post-high school readiness. They discuss helping kids explore all their options from trade school to military service to entrepreneurship. They share how to guide kids toward careers that can actually support them, teach essential life skills like laundry and budgeting, and, most importantly, communicate that your love isn’t tied to what they choose next. #CollegePrep #LifeSkills #ParentingTeens #CouncilOfMoms #MomWisdom #AfterHighSchool
