Insights on being a young adult with Rowan O’Roarty

I am really excited about my guest today, and I have a feeling you will be, too! My amazing daughter, Rowan, is back to give us an update on her life. She talk about everything from teen mental health, navigating ADHD as a teen and young adult, the college journey, and more! I ask Rowan what she’s learned in her first few years of adulthood while juggling working, living on her own, and going to school. We talk about motivation versus discipline, lessons learned through experience, changing perspectives, and boundaries. Rowan wraps us up by sharing what she wishes Gen X knows about the young adults of today.  Takeaways from the show Describing and revisiting tough times & emotions  Returning to (and loving) college  Changing your mindset to achieve your goal  Learning how to be a college student  Navigating ADHD diagnosis & medications  The pressure of early adulthood  Takeaways from the first few years of being on your own  Motivation versus discipline  Lessons are learned through experience  How we respond to our kids when they are having a hard time influences the relationships we have with them later  Perspectives changing as you age and get out of the thick of it  Finding the humor, joy, and not taking life too seriously For more show notes, including transcripts, visit our website here.
