About This Podcast
After 20 years in product design and strategy, I've seen what happens when people make expensive decisions without understanding themselves or the landscape first. Families make that mistake with college all the time.
On this show, you'll hear from higher ed leaders doing different things—rethinking curriculum, student support, career integration. You'll come away understanding what actually matters, asking smarter questions during the college search, and making a decision that's genuinely yours.
Hosted by Ringae Nuek, a college admissions consultant and founder of Waysmith.
