Is your college grad living at home while you send them job listings, pay the bills, and do their laundry? This episode is for you.

Evan Sanchez welcomes back Beth Carter of Beth Carter Enterprises. Beth is a certified leadership coach, a former executive recruiter with more than 30 years of experience, and an adjunct professor at Roger Williams University and Bryant University. This time she shares some tough love for parents who want their grad to launch.

In this conversation, you'll learn:

• Why sending your grad job listings can do more harm than good
• Who can help your grad more objectively than you can, from the campus career center to your friends and their friends' parents
• The two meanings of FEAR, and how to help your grad "face everything and rise"
• Why pressure to land the perfect first job makes grads bomb their interviews
• Why letting your grad fail is one of the kindest things you can do
• How to stop running a five-star hotel with free rent, laundry and groceries
• The survival skills every grad needs, starting with a budget
• Beth's take on Gen Z, confidence and the end of the 9-to-5 mindset
• Her two favorite words for parents: back off
• Beth's advice for parents: "Get a hobby, and live your life now, because it's your turn."
