Adulting Readiness — What You Don't Know That You Don't Know
The young adult confronts the practical knowledge gap between teenage life and independent adulthood: taxes, insurance, renting an apartment, cooking real meals, navigating healthcare, managing money, doing laundry properly, basic car maintenance, understanding contracts. Through honest self-assessment and structured discussion, the young adult identifies what they already know, what they don't, and what they need to learn before independence arrives. The parent shares the things they wish someone had taught them, creating a practical learning plan built on honesty rather than anxiety.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Paper or device for making lists and a learning plan. No other materials needed. The parent should prepare mentally to be honest about their own adulting gaps and early independence struggles — the funny stories AND the genuinely stressful ones. This conversation works best when the parent admits they're STILL figuring some of this out, rather than presenting as someone who has it all together.
