Succeeding in high school doesn't have to be at the expense of one's mental and physical health.
Made for high schoolers by high schoolers, we aim to provide a platform to discuss the social and mental pressures that accompany the high school experience. More importantly, we're here to challenge its misconceptions and reassure that its difficulties are not experienced alone.
Per episode, join us as we discuss the realistic elements of school-related successes and failures and how to lead a more productive and intentional life.
The high school experience is situated in an interesting time for many students. Some feel the pressure of making their parents proud, particularly for those who are first generation. This pressure can affect the classes or activities we pursue- but how can we make sure that we are keeping our interests in mind? How does our environment influence the schools we want to apply to and the people we want to interact with? Join hosts Hosaena and Rhiannon as they reflect on their own experiences and compare the influence of these factors.
