Many families only talk about school when something goes wrong. The Sunday Sync moves those conversations into one short, predictable weekly meeting, so grades, goals, and deadlines stay out of the rest of the week.

When I first taught myself about college admissions, I was worried that I was just going to have to learn about all the meaningless hoops students need to jump through to build competitive applications. I was worried that the work of building a competitive college admissions profile would be at odds with the more important work of self-discovery and exploration.

The reason I stayed in this work, the reason I actually love this work, is because I realized that wasn't true.

I like to think of the Partnership Agreement as the constitutional foundation of the Guided Ambition Lab.
