In this episode of The Way to College Podcast, Dr. Jose Saldivar sits down with Jillian Reilly (joining us from Cape Town, South Africa) to talk about the invisible “success script” so many students feel pressured to follow — and how to rewrite it with courage, clarity, and action.

We unpack:

• Why the “linear life” is a myth (and what to do instead)

• How to stop outsourcing your choices to approval from others

• The difference between support, resources… and permission

• A practical way to take your next step even when you’re unsure

Jillian is the author of “The 10 Permissions,” and her message is simple: get out into the real world, and let it teach you.
