Episode 294: When "Figuring It All Out" Is the Problem: A College Senior Speaks About an Uncertain Future

Not knowing what comes after graduation feels like failing. It's not. The real problem is the pressure to have it all figured out. Dr. Greg sits down with college senior Sandy Napolitano to talk about the anxiety of life after graduation — where the fear of the unknown really comes from, and why discernment starts the moment you stop trying to force certainty.

Key Topics:

• Why "What's your plan?" quietly writes God out of the decision
• How the need for a plan can be fear wearing the mask of responsibility
• Why starting at the end — not the next step — makes half your options disappear
• Why naming a fear out loud drains most of its power
• How the experience that changed you becomes the one you most need to integrate
