In this episode, we confront the dangerous myth that there's a "perfect" college applicant, and the pressure it puts on both parents and students. We explore how social media, competitive school cultures, and our own anxieties can lead us to push our teens toward an impossible standard of achievement. Learn how to recognize when expectations have become unhealthy, how perfectionism impacts your student's mental health and authenticity, and why colleges are actually looking for real kids, not robots. We discuss how to celebrate your student's unique strengths, support them through setbacks, and reframe success in ways that prioritize well-being alongside achievement. This episode is a reality check and a permission slip to let your teen be human. S1, E9
