College athletic recruitment story update. What role does financial fit play? Chasing the best $ deal alone is not a recipe for flourishing. Conversely, financial stress on a family is also not a recipe for success. Lots of grey zone here. Same can be said of a job search-how much weight does salary alone carry? How much weight does the work environment carry? What balance will allow you and your family to flourish? Lots to think about!

Always humbled and honored to work with young people looking for the right college fit. Focus on process. Control the controllables. Take an inside-out approach, and ask yourself “What matters to you? What do you value?”
