    New State, New Start: Leaving Home for College
    Apr 13 2025

    In the very first episode of Freshman Year Diaries, I’m joined by my best friend Maura, who made the bold decision to leave her home in New Jersey to attend college in South Carolina. We talk about everything from homesickness and culture shock to independence, making new friends, and the unexpected highs and lows of starting fresh in a totally new place.

    If you’re considering going out of state for college—or you’re just wondering what it’s really like to leave your comfort zone—this episode is full of honest advice, personal stories, and plenty of laughs.

    Whether you're packing your bags or still deciding where to go, Maura's story is one you won't want to miss.
