Parents Webinar - Thursday 11th September:
Navigating the University Journey Together: A Guide for Parents Through Change and Growth
Are you feeling a mix of pride and worry as your young person prepares for university? You're not alone. This webinar is designed especially for parents who are supporting their young person through this major life transition while navigating their own feelings about the changing family dynamic.
What We'll Cover: Five Essential Areas to Help You Both Thrive
1. The Art of Stepping Back While Staying Connected How to gracefully transition from being your young person's primary guide to becoming their trusted consultant and advisor. We'll explore what support looks like now, what to let go of, and how to resist the urge to solve everything for them.
2. Money Matters: Creating Clarity and Confidence Establishing clear financial boundaries and expectations before they leave. We'll discuss how to set up budgeting conversations, what contributions you'll make, and how to teach financial independence without leaving them (or you) stressed about money.
3. Understanding the Emotional Rollercoaster (For Both of You) University transition comes with natural ups and downs. Learn to recognise what's normal adjustment versus when to be concerned, how to trust your instincts about your young person, and when your support is most needed.
4. Your Transition Matters Too This change isn't just happening to your child - you're going through your own significant life transition. We'll explore how to process the "empty nest" feelings, rediscover your own interests and relationships, and create a new sense of purpose and identity.
5. Staying in Touch Without Hovering Finding the sweet spot in communication - how to respond helpfully to those inevitable panic calls, creating flexible agreements about contact, and maintaining connection while giving them space to grow and become independent.
