ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
N.E.T. Collective—Navigating Everything Together is a podcast for teens, college students, new graduates, young adults AND the people guiding and supporting them on their adulting journey.
From classrooms to college to careers and beyond, two experienced professionals - a licensed school psychologist in private practice, and a career coach, both mothers in our target audience - break down life's transitions, challenges, twists and turns with clarity, warmth, and generous touch of humor. The topics we cover range from Executive Functions, ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Test Prep, Essay Writing to Networking, Career Challenges and so much more.
We talk candidly, lovingly, and realistically about topics that may have our listeners scrounging around the web at 2AM for reliable information. More importantly, we offer real conversations, practical strategies, and thoughtful perspectives to help you get informed, empowered, and supported—because the journey of life is easier when we navigate it together!
