The Teen College Experience from a Teen POV
Welcome to another engaging episode where we sit down with Dipen, a college student, to explore the highs and lows of university life, including overcoming overwhelm, fostering friendships, navigating roommate dynamics, and cultivating self-confidence.
Dipen candidly shares his initial struggles with the overwhelming transition to college, a sentiment familiar to countless students. Drawing from reports, including insights from Harvard, we delve into the pervasive issue of students lacking essential self-regulation skills to navigate the challenges they encounter.
Reflecting on his upbringing, Dipen fondly recalls the supportive environment created by his parents. Their encouragement to question, express dissent, and engage in meaningful discussions fostered a sense of security and openness, providing him with the foundation to confront the uncertainties of college life.
In recounting his experiences with roommates, Dipen offers valuable insights into the complexities of shared living spaces. From disagreements over household responsibilities to clashes in cultural norms, he discovered the importance of setting boundaries and understanding that roommates need not always become close friends. Instead, he emphasizes the transformative journey of finding his tribe—individuals who share his values, interests, and aspirations.
Exploring the five key challenges faced by teens in college, Dipen draws upon his personal encounters to shed light on these hurdles. Central to his narrative is the concept of experiential learning—stepping out of comfort zones, making mistakes, and embracing discomfort as opportunities for growth.
Furthermore, Dipen delves into the profound significance of cultivating close friendships in college. He articulates the essence of true friendship—its role in providing support, fostering personal development, and creating a sense of belonging within the college community.
This episode serves as a valuable resource for both parents and their children, offering practical insights and heartfelt anecdotes to navigate the multifaceted journey of college life. Join us as we embark on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and empowerment with Dipen as our guide.

Overcoming Childhood Trauma
🎙️ **Latest Podcast Insights on ACES - Adverse Childhood Experiences** 🌟
In our recent episode (No. 29) with Dr. Victorieus, we dived deep into the pressing issue of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES). Notably, the CDC now recognizes bullying as an ACE, shedding light on its profound impact on our children.
Resilience emerged as the paramount tool to help young minds navigate the tumultuous waters of childhood trauma, with a specific focus on challenges like bullying.
However, a stark reality surfaced – the shortage of mental health counselors in schools. Children bring their problems to school, but the resources to address them are lacking. - It's a call to action for parents to ensure a safe home environment, free from issues like parental conflicts, abuse, emotional neglect, and authoritarian parenting.
Why does this matter? Because children, even subconsciously, carry the scars into their adult lives, influencing their relationships. The broken system compounds the issue – schools lack funding and fail to provide essential life skills classes as preventative measures.
The call is clear: Parents, it's time to step up. Get involved in your child's life skills training and education. The system might be flawed, but change begins at home.
Creating awareness is the first step. Engage with your communities, be the voice for those who need it. Let's address the void in extracurricular activities for our youth, offering positive alternatives to keep them away from trouble.
It's time for action, awareness, and advocacy. Share your thoughts, join the conversation, and let's pave the way for a brighter, healthier future for our children.

Life is not a competition between men or women, it is a "Collaboration"
It is not a secret that "Sexism" still exist. If you're not sure what sexism is, sexism as “an attitude of prejudice or discriminatory behavior based on the supposed inferiority or difference of women as a group” and in Latin culture the concept of "Machismo" is practiced more. Machismo is defined as a set of beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours that demonstrate the superiority of men over women in various areas.
Some are women’s inferiority and weakness compared to men, women’s relegation to roles of wife and homemaker, and sexual power that women possess that makes them dangerous for men.
Luis began to notice these differences not only in his home but in school, his community, and began to see how it was even affecting his love relationships, and that's what led him to his life's purpose, which is to eradicate machismo, and to help youth, and men regulate their emotions, have healthy relationships, and find meaning in their life.

TRE S.2 P.7 If you CUT Yourself are in an ABUSIVE relationship, or are a PEOPLE PLEASER, You NEED to hear this Episode!
Laarni was 15 years old when she started to feel the “PULL.”
What is 'the Pull?'
The Pull is when you realize that what those around you are doing, the lives they are living, the culture or religion, or whatever you were born with is NOT who You are!
It’s okay for them, but it’s NOT a fit for You.
The Pull happens when you start waking up to realization of who you truly are and you fight it, because you have ‘been conditioned’ to value the love, approval and, validation of others more than yours.
This happens because you because no one teaches us how to love ourselves. How to get to know ourselves deeply, from our likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, gifts, shortcomings, and embrace every single aspects our ourselves.
This is why we turn to drugs, alcohol, toxic relationships, why we hurt ourselves, develop addictions, and more self harming behavior, because we don’t know how to love ourselves, soothe ourselves, and give ourselves what we truly need.
That is one of our biggest challenges in life.
Learning to love yourself even when others don’t love or approve who you are and who we want to be.
Laarni’s story is
Join us as we talk about Laarni's journey starting out as a misunderstood Asian-American teen who didn’t have the desire tp follow the traditional Asian woman role that her family was enforcing.

Season 2 Podcast Episode 6 "Do you really need to go to college to be successful?
Selecting what you do will probably be one of the most important decisions of your life, and I don’t feel they prepare teens enough to make such a huge decision or huge financial commitment.
Choosing what you will do for the rest of your life is so important because you will spend a third of your life or longer at work.
This will determine the quality of your life not just in status or financially but it will affect your relationships and your happiness.
88% of Americans report being unhappy with what they do.
This just shows you how important it is for you to make the right decision.
There are some things that you should consider before choosing a college, degree, trade, or profession.
Because going to public college is no longer a luxury, roughly 70% of Americans are going to college, the market is saturated and degrees have lost their value.
Most of these colleges and admission reps continue selling Students, YOU, on a dream that is far from the reality.
What they don’t tell you that college is a business and that your degree is a consumer product.
A product you are making a huge investment on that you will be paying for the next 10-20 years, but is it worth it?
This episode segment 1 goes over some current statistics on the graduates, college degrees, drop out rates, the job market, and how much bang you're actually getting for your buck.
S.2 Episode number 5 with Marketing coach and consultant Gina Talarico
Do you think you need a college degree to make a lot of money? Well, in this episode Gina will debunk all your beliefs.
She has managed to create a life of freedom and prosperity just by listening to her intuition, putting herself in uncomfortable situations so that she could grow and pushing past her fears.
Gina started her business two years ago after working at a bank for three years. I found early on in her "career" that there was NO WAY she was going to be doing this for the next 30+ years. It was so emotionally draining, she was overworked and underpaid.
Ever since she was young she knew she was destined for more! She realized she was the only one standing in her way so she took her future into her own hands and created employment for herself! Now, she helps business owners promote their businesses on social media by creating customized marketing and sales plans!
Gina's message to the listeners: "Remember that you are so much more capable than you give yourself credit for! You can do anything you set your mind to!"

Rockstar Entrepreneur Interview with Samuel Mojica
Samuel Mojica is a very successful 23 year old mentor and entrepreneur who helps individual and corporate business owners use Social media to generate Unlimited leads, close more sales and automate much of the sales process.
Sam shares his journey as a beginner network marketer and how he initially lost his first four figure investment, that he had borrowed from family and friends no less, in solo ads and how he had to reinvent himself, push past is discomfort and fear to succeed.
But his story doesn't end there, no. The truth is that Sam had a reason to succeed because he didn't want to let his family and friends down, but like what happens with most of us, he let his ego get in the way when he started making 5 figures month after month and how it took loosing everything for him to sit down, re-evaluate his life and what his goals, desires, values and needs where so that he could get to be the happy entrepreneur he is today.
This episode is a little longer than the others and that's because Sam's got a lot of great stories, and is fantastic at telling them.

Rockstar Entrepreneur Interview with Rapper, R&B singer "DarealMonday"
"I surround myself with hustlers. Wether it's book smart, street smart, whatever. Hard work understands hard work." Da Real Monday wasn't born with a silver spoon. Not even close. He was born into extreme poverty in the hood. Sometimes there wasn't enough to pay the bills, no lights, and some nights having to go to bed with nothing to eat, and worse, finding himself in situations that most of us can't even imagine. So, how did he find his way out? How did he turn his life around for him and his family? Through his writings. He began with poetry and then got into music. Listen to this interview and discover the power in finding your true purpose. Having a purpose gives you direction in life and the strength to overcome the challenges that come your way. This is why I'm disheartened with the current education system that has stripped our youth from everything that matters to them and that is essential for their growth. No Music, No Art and No Physical Fitness or nutrition! No creativity or activities that inspire well being. And then we wonder why anxiety, stress and depression is at an all time high among teens. We wonder why the crime rate is up and 1 out of 5 teens commit suicide in the United States? Honestly, even what happening in the cities in America right now is not because of this one tragic event. It's a build up of dissatisfaction that has been festering for decades. This is where the change we want to see needs to begin.

Rockstar Interview with Rohan Prashanth
Today we had the pleasure of interviewing Rohan Prashanth, a 17 years old author and entrepreneur.
When Rohan was 13 years old, he launched his first podcast and at 14, he got his first paid client offering editing services.
That same year, he sold over $1,000 worth of items lying around the house, on eBay and Amazon, and made close to another $1000 testing websites for other companies in less than 3 months.
In the past couple of years he's experimented with and learned Private-Labeling, Video Editing, and Social Media Management.
As he learned more and more, he realized that this was something he could easily share with others to help them do what he's done.
And that’s when he decided to write his book - to share with others how to make a side income, and hence the title “Side Income Simplified”.
He has created a podcast called Side Income Simplified as well.
