Betting on Yourself: A Mother-Son Journey from Washington to WashU

What happens when a high-achieving student’s big dreams collide with a family health crisis and the skyrocketing costs of higher education? In this episode, Robyn is joined by Joel Anderson and his mother, Marilee Hill-Anderson, to discuss the emotional and practical hurdles of the college application process. Joel, now a higher education professional, reflects on the "stressful week" that changed his life and the importance of not "self-selecting" out of opportunities. Marilee shares a parent’s perspective on supporting a child’s aspirations when the future feels uncertain. From the "hidden costs" of college life to the power of a single networking connection, this episode is a masterclass in resilience, advocacy, and betting on your own potential. Key Takeaways: * The Danger of Self-Selection: Why the biggest barrier to financial aid isn't your qualifications, but the applications you never submit. * Mindset vs. Crisis: How Marilee navigated supporting her son’s "reach" goals while the family faced significant personal challenges. * Beyond Tuition: A reality check on the "basic needs" costs—like housing, food, and tech—that 529 plans and scholarships don't always fully cover. * The 70% Goal: Surprising statistics on how post-secondary credentials (not just four-year degrees) impact lifelong economic mobility.

Navigating the New High School Finish Line with Dr. Joyce V. Brown

The transition from high school to "what’s next" has changed significantly in recent years, leaving many parents and students feeling overwhelmed by deadlines and shifting requirements. In this inaugural episode, Robyn S. Hadley sits down with decorated educator and post-secondary expert Dr. Joyce V. Brown to demystify the journey. From the evolving role of school counselors to the "three questions" every student should ask an adult, this conversation provides a practical roadmap for families looking to secure economic prosperity without losing their peace of mind. Whether your student is eyeing a four-year university, a trade program, or the military, Robyn and Dr. Joyce show you how to build the village you need to cross the finish line with confidence. Key Takeaways: * The Modern Counselor: Discover the three specific ways the counselor’s role has shifted post-pandemic and how to make them your strongest ally. * The Power of the "Brag Sheet": Learn why gathering "evidence" of a student’s character from peers and parents is a game-changer for recommendations. * Beyond the 4-Year Degree: A look at why "post-secondary" doesn't always mean a residential college and how to evaluate alternative pathways. * The "Six-Semester" Rule: Why the junior year transcript holds the secret to college admissions and how to review it before it’s too late.
