PODCASTS
Pandemic Parenting - Resources for Parenting Teens & Young Adults
Teenager Therapy - Five stressed, sleep-deprived, yet energetic teens sit down and talk about the struggles that come with being a teenager. Is high school really as bad as everyone says? A podcast that's a coming-of-age story portrayed in real-time. A culmination of mistakes and growth and a reminder you're not alone.
College Life Podcast - The college life podcast is here to bring college students information and stories related to everything about college life. We interview current college students, recent graduates, and people who work at colleges to discuss challenges, successes, and opportunities for you to make the most of your time in college.
The Voices of Young People - We listen directly to young people as they respond to our research and share about the issues impacting their lives. Explore the episodes below as the Springtide team breaks open the data with the real experts: young people, in their own voices.
The Teen Life Coach Podcast - Like many young girls, I struggled to find myself, dealt with anxiety and depression, and constantly compared myself to others. As a Life Coach, my mission is to help guide other teens in developing confidence and facing their fears.
