The “Becoming You” podcast has arrived, hosted by Suzy Welch, the business journalist-turned-professor at the helm of NYU’s wildly popular self-discovery class by the same name. A three New York Times best-seller and frequent contributor to the Today Show and the Wall Street Journal, Professor Welch is considered a leading expert on decision-making, and the discovery and pursuit of authentic purpose. But virtually no topic is off-bounds in her irreverent new podcast, from parenting fails (including her own) to perfect poems (none of her own, thank God.) Also included: Pointed opinions on dogs, Gen Z, marriage, credit default swaps, golf skirts, career killing mistakes, and under-appreciated TV shows you really have to see immediately. OK, there is actually nothing in the podcast about credit default swaps. Tune in every week to laugh, learn, get riled up, get calmed down, and basically get closer to becoming you, joyfully, in this crazy, up…","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/becoming-you-with-suzy-welch-6913317"},"episode":{"title":"My Ouchy Advice to Parents of New Graduates.

And you, mom and dad, are about to make some very big, very loving, very misguided mistakes. This week on Becoming You, your host Suzy Welch — professor, author, parent of four, and someone who got the post-graduation parenting thing spectacularly wrong at least twice before she got it right — delivers the advice nobody is giving at the graduation party. Here's the ouchy truth: you are focused on entirely the wrong problem. The problem is not that your kid is unemployed. The problem is that your kid is unaimed. And those two things require completely different solutions. In this episode, Suzy walks you through the brutal math of this job market, the expensive lie hiding inside the grad school \"solution,\" and the hard conversation about values that most parents are afraid to have. The last piece of advice is the ouchy-est of all: how not to become the villain in your child's story, and how to become something far more powerful instead.
