About this listen
Gifts for Birthdays, Teens, Graduation, College, Freshmen, 18th Birthday
Please note, while this book offers universal tips for college success, its advice is primarily based on American customs and educational systems. Listeners from other backgrounds may need to adapt the guidance to their unique contexts.
Are you worried your high school grad might be diving into college life unprepared? Transitioning to college is exciting, but it comes with challenges—from managing their own schedule to tackling adult responsibilities. Life Skills 101 and College Bound combine to offer a practical guide for conquering both academic and personal challenges.
Healthcare Away from Home: Can they find a doctor near campus, handle emergencies, or navigate their health insurance in a new location?
Balancing Academic and Social Life: Do they know how to prioritize coursework while managing social events and staying on track?
Financial Savvy: Can they budget for textbooks, food, and emergencies? Do they know how to save money using student discounts and campus resources?
Roommate Dynamics: Are they ready to communicate with roommates, handle conflicts, and create a respectful shared space?
Self-Care and Mental Health: Do they understand the importance of mental health and how to access campus support services?
College-Level Academics: Are they prepared for independent learning and able to seek help from professors or tutors?
Career Services and Internships: Do they know how to explore career opportunities and build a professional network from their first year?
This isn’t just a college manual; it’s the ultimate insider’s guide to thriving in college and beyond. Perfect for a high school grad’s going-away suitcase, it provides the tools they need to navigate this new chapter confidently.

What if the very parts of yourself you’ve been trying to hide, fix, or escape are actually the key to your deepest transformation? Your wounds, self-doubt, and repeating negative cycles aren’t random, they're messages from your shadows, demanding to be heard. But most healing approaches fail because they separate personal growth from relationships. Until you address both, true rebirth remains out of reach.

So, what’s your favorite Bible verse? Wait, let me guess. Is it Jeremiah 29:11? Maybe Philippians 4:13? Or could it be John 3:16? Don’t get me wrong—those are all great, but let’s be honest, we hear them a lot. I’m willing to bet your favorite passage probably isn’t coming from Haggai, Obadiah, or Nahum—right? But guess what? Those books have some gems, too. If you’re ready to go beyond the usual, you’ve come to the right place!

¿Sientes que otros conectan con facilidad mientras tú te quedas atascado en la "charla sobre el clima"? ¿Te aterra asistir a eventos de networking o conferencias? No eres el único. Estudios muestran que el 85% del éxito laboral depende de habilidades sociales y comunicativas, esenciales también en nuestra vida personal. Pero la buena noticia es que dominar el arte de la conversación no es un talento, sino una habilidad que se puede aprender.

A smart, thoughtful guide for new grads
I listened to this as someone helping my younger sibling get ready for college, and it really hit the right notes. It covered things I hadn’t even thought to bring up—like how to actually handle health insurance or find campus mental health resources. The roommate tips and budgeting sections were especially eye-opening and easy to pass along. Great mix of advice that feels relevant without talking down to the listener.
