In this episode of Demystifying College Admissions, I have a very special guest, Ursula.

I’m so grateful that I was able to mentor Michelle and help her navigate this journey with ease and success.

- Why Ursula decided to work with me even though she had already hired a college counselor for Michelle
- What students truly need
- How Michelle benefited from working with me
- What kind of role Ursula played in the college admissions journey to maximize Michelle’s motivation, passion, and success
- What the college admissions journey is really all about
NOTABLE QUOTES:
- “Even though there are very good professionals out in the field, not all of them are a good fit for our kids.”
- “You knew exactly how to motivate her.”
- “Her professional, academic, and personal development started with you.”
- “She has and keeps developing/discovering what her passions are.”
- “What matters is that they are happy.”
- “The most important thing is that they can find their passions.”
- “Parents: we need to be very aware and give all of the resources to our kids - to provide them the elements that they need in order to rediscover or discover what is inside of them, not outside!”
- “Enjoy the ride!”
