183. A Real & Raw Conversation About Teenage Life, Getting Ready For College + What We've Learned As Mother + Daughter with Ava Demcher :: Part Two
Update: 2025-08-25
Description
Grab your tissues (again) because Part Two of this conversation gets even more real and raw.
Krista and Ava are talking about the stuff that keeps parents up at night and makes teenagers stress-cry in their cars. The college application process in 2025, long-term relationships in high school, friendship drama (and how to avoid it), and the fights that actually made their mother-daughter relationship stronger.
This episode is honest about the hard parts - like when everyone else seemed to know where they were going to college and Ava was still waiting to hear back from schools. Or how expensive everything is right now and what that means for families making these huge decisions. But it's also hopeful because watching your kid figure out how to navigate all of this? It's pretty incredible.
What they're covering:
- The college application stress that almost broke them both
- Ava's approach to friendships that eliminates most of the drama
- The parenting mistakes Krista is still making (and the ones she's learned to let go)
- Why Ava's not scared to be five hours away from home
- The fights they've had that would probably make good reality TV
Ava's heading to Syracuse for Television, Radio & Film, and honestly, after listening to this episode, you'll understand why she's going to crush it.
