Laura Barr is a dynamic speaker and advocates for using the college application process to “launch citizens.” Her unique approach takes students on a meaningful journey of identity formation that helps them find their passion and purpose. Parents can assist with this process by transforming their mindset from “managing” their teens to “guiding” and “collaborating” with them. Through webinars, lunch and learns, and in-person engagements, Laura teaches parents how to maximize the college application process to produce responsible, independent individuals who thrive as young adults.
