About this listen

You’re Moving Out of Your Parents’ House. Now What?

Worried about stepping into the real world unprepared after high school graduation? Gain the confidence and competence you need with our comprehensive guide to essential life skills for college and beyond.

Life Skills for College – A Practical Guide to Adulting for Teens and Young Adults has everything you need to confidently navigate the most important areas of adulting while sharing the real-life entertaining (and sometimes cringe-worthy) experiences of other young adults.

  • Simplify meal planning, grocery shopping and cooking
  • Learn the basics of budgeting, banking and credit
  • Discover boundaries, belongings and respect for roommates
  • Cover your car care basics
  • Unlock the secrets of resumes, job hunting and freelancing
  • Liberate your laundry skills

These are not skills you can easily figure out by yourself; they’re not taught in school.

Skills are learned abilities, not usually common sense.

I absolutely loved this book! Our son is a bit out of sorts when it comes to figuring out his place in the world. This book is wonderfully full of tips for college kids for everything from groceries to resumes. The information is practical and easy to follow, but also interesting, impactful, and delivered in a warm and humorous way. I hope our son will listen intently, as I did. There’s so much value in it!

This is the perfect book to help me with our 17 year old!

I loved how it kept things simple and didn’t feel preachy—it felt like someone actually walking me through the basics. The stories from others made it super relatable, too, and reminded me I’m not the only one figuring stuff out.
