It’s easy to fear that we’re messing up our kids. If I don’t steer my kids to the right college, they won’t find the perfect spouse, and their life path will be ruined. What if they miss out on a career opportunity?
Mindset: As a parent, we have control issues. We need to put our fake magical powers back into the magician’s kit and take a breath. This is not our burden to bear.
I can pray, trust God, and ask for support from other moms going through similar situations. But this is not our wheel to steer.

As if their junior year has been marred with have to’s and should do’s.How can we create a more peaceful mindset?
3.. How can we let go of control and partner with God on something that seems like the world will explode if we don’t do this right?
- Discuss careers and money with my student (how do you know what major to choose, and understanding what it means to get a scholarship vs pay for college. Some people take years to pay off debt.
