What if blowing up your life isn't reckless, but actually the most rational thing you've ever done?

This week, your host Suzy Welch sits down with two women who actually did just that. Cassie is a Forbes Top 200 CPA who walked away from 22 years of accolades, corner offices, and everything she was "supposed" to be. Marilyn Dollar is a certified Becoming You coach who helped her do it, and who has her own story of reinvention.

What follows is a masterclass in what living at the intersection of your values, aptitudes, and interests actually looks like in real life — which is precisely where the Becoming You methodology argues your real purpose lies. This episode chronicles the process and moment that Cassie stopped asking "why?" and started asking "why not?"

This episode is for anyone who has ever stood at the edge of their own life and wondered if it's too late to leap. It isn't. There is no use-by date on becoming yourself.

It's graduation season. 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.
