Because parents shouldn’t have to say, “I wish I knew then what I know now.”
From Carpool to College explores the pivotal years when teenagers are forming identity, building independence, and
preparing for life after high school.
Hosted by seasoned educators Tracy Amedeo and Tara Horutz, the podcast blends developmental psychology with college and career planning. Together they help parents understand the academic, emotional, and cultural forces shaping adolescents during the high school and college transition years.
Through candid conversations and seasoned professional insight, Tracy and Tara unpack both the college planning process
and the deeper work of raising capable, self-directed young adults.
