It's graduation season. And you, mom and dad, are about to make some very big, very loving, very misguided mistakes.
This week on Becoming You, your host Suzy Welch — professor, author, parent of four, and someone who got the post-graduation parenting thing spectacularly wrong at least twice before she got it right — delivers the advice nobody is giving at the graduation party.
Here's the ouchy truth: you are focused on entirely the wrong problem. The problem is not that your kid is unemployed. The problem is that your kid is unaimed. And those two things require completely different solutions. In this episode, Suzy walks you through the brutal math of this job market, the expensive lie hiding inside the grad school "solution," and the hard conversation about values that most parents are afraid to have.
The last piece of advice is the ouchy-est of all: how not to become the villain in your child's story, and how to become something far more powerful instead.
Take the Becoming You One-Day Intensive this June on NYU’s campus, here.
