Adulting in the Real World is Not Therapy: A Coaching Service
I want to reiterate that Adulting in the Real World is not therapy, nor is it a therapy replacement service. It is a coaching service that is completely independent from my life as a therapist. As a result, I feel it's essential to clarify this point with my audience, especially those who may be unfamiliar with my background or the nature of my work. My following extends beyond the United States, and while I believe the grand majority of course content in Adulting in the Real World can be universally beneficial, there are smaller specific sections that are American-focused. These topics are created by Americans and specifically address the healthcare system in the United States.
The Information Is Not Applicable Everywhere
As a result of this focus on the US healthcare system, I want to clarify that certain aspects of the course are not applicable everywhere. For example, the information provided on how to get health insurance is very specific to the American healthcare system and does not apply to every other country in the world. Therefore, it's essential to be aware of these limitations when using the course as a resource.
I Am Not Sponsored
I also want to reassure my audience that I am not being paid to create this video or promote Adulting in the Real World. My boss is not convincing me to do so, and I do not receive any additional payment or compensation if you purchase the course or check it out. While having my support from my employer would be lovely, it's essential to maintain transparency with my audience.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enI feel like I don't remember how to do this hey what's up hello my name is Emma and today I'm going to be talking about a super secret project I have spent the last year working on. Obviously since working full-time as a therapist I have not had the time or energy to dedicate to YouTube like I have in the past but that's not to say that I haven't been making videos and creating content which is what I'm talking about today. For the past year I have been working very closely with my boss at my therapy practice to create a project that completely goes outside of the counseling therapy space and that is an online course for teens and adults called Adulting in the Real World. Stop pause this is not a sponsorship. This is a project that I feel so deeply passionate and proud of and I'm so excited that after all of this time it's finally available to the world so I'm really hoping that you'll give me a chance and just listen to what it's all about. My favorite elevator pitch of how I talk about Adulting in the Real World or as I also call it ARW is it is the One-Stop shop where you can learn all of the things that we wish we learned in high school but we didn't. Throughout high school and college my friends and I would very frequently lament on having to learn required courses like algebra and chemistry when we wanted to be learning more practical things like how do we file our taxes what is health insurance how do I get it and how do I rent an apartment. It feels like a Rite of Passage to be dissatisfied with the things that we are learning in school and unprepared when we exit and the focus of Adulting in the Real World is to combine all of the necessary information skills and knowledge to help you master adulthood in an easily understandable and applicable way. The way ARW is set up is we have these three main modules that are typically about an hour to two hours of videos each but they are all divided into shorter videos by sub-categories that make the information much easier to get through. So we start by talking about identifying your values and setting goal that are aligned with them to create a satisfying life how to better manage your time and create routines as well as improve your decision making process and communication with others. Our second module is titled Physicians and Provisions so on the one hand it deals with everything you need to know about navigating the world of healthcare how to get health insurance and what all of these different terms mean as well as maintaining regular doctor's appointments and physical health but it also deals with General Home Care like grocery shopping keeping your space clean and tidy doing laundry as well as being prepared in case of emergencies. And our last module is focused entirely on financial management so this is where you can learn how to set a budget that is actually going to work for you that you will stick to how to understand things like bank accounts credit as well as loans and also paying off debt and investing. And in addition to the videos when you purchase Adulting in the Real World you also get a ton of really helpful handouts and worksheets that have have additional information and also give you the opportunity to practice and apply what we are talking about to your own life. And at ARW we are really intentional about wanting this course to serve the people that it needs to so we State very clearly on our website like if you were somebody that is raking in a six-figure job with a 401k a paid off car in a fully furnished apartment like this is not the course for you please do not buy it. But if you are a recent high school or college grad maybe you're still a student and you're feeling really overwhelmed about all of the new changes and responsibilities that are coming for you in the next couple of years Adulting in the Real World was made for you and I feel very confident that you will get something out of it. The mentors of Adulting the Real World that you would be learning from are myself as well as my boss and ARW's Creator Alyssa Mairanz. I love Alyssa so dearly I have no clue how I got so lucky to work for her but she inspires me every day and is like the exact person I want to be when I grow up. Alyssa having undergone her own struggles and difficulties in transitioning through the world of adulthood became inspired to help others not have to jump through the same Hoops that she did to find personal success. And that's what I think makes Adulting the Real World so strong and powerful is that it was created by a woman in her 30s who has found the secrets and necessary information to achieving success and it's being taught to you by myself as a 26 year old where all of the obstacles and transitions that the course aims to guide you through are all of the things that I am currently going through right now. To be transparent I did not know so much of the course content that we are teaching in Adulting in the Real World when I signed on to be a mentor. So I first had to take all of the information and teaching that Alyssa has and learn them myself but then also help transmit them into information and tips that are easily digestible and can be understood by other people who are going through the same thing. It's this weird dichotomy where at the same time I am the teacher and the student and having that kind of experience has really allowed me to see the benefits of all of the information included in the course first hand. Since working on Adulting in the Real World the ways that my life has benefited from this course is I've begun budgeting for the first time investing I paid off one of my student loans and I am preparing to move out of my mom's home for the very first time. I've created a team of doctors therapists and Specialists that all help me take care of and maintain my mental and physical health I've made really strong improvements in terms of time management as well as keeping my space organized and clean and I've truthfully never felt more confident about my ability to be successful in the future than I do now. Alyssa always refers to ARW as her passion project and over the time of me also being involved in this project it's become mine too and that's not just because of the amount of time and energy and effort I've put into making something that I'm really really proud of but because I know firsthand that it holds so much power and knowledge to unlocking a future that people like me didn't think was possible for them. I want to reiterate number one that Adulting in the Real World is not therapy or therapy replacement whatsoever it is a coaching service that is completely independent from my life as a therapist. And because I'm aware that my following extends beyond the United States while I believe the grand majority of course content in Adulting in the Real World can be universally beneficial there are smaller specific sections that are American focused as it is created by Americans so for example the topics on how to get health insurance are very specific to the American Health Care system and we don't have the information on how it works on every other country in the world so I just wanted to be clear that there are certain aspects that are focused on the systems in America but the grand majority of information can be applied anywhere. And I want to be really clear that this is not a sponsorship I am not being paid to make this video my boss is not convincing me to and I do not receive any additional payment or compensation if you do purchase the course or check it out I mean my boss would be really happy with me helping make Adulting in the Real World successful so like that would be nice. And because I have been so adamant about wanting to share this with all of you and wanting to make it accessible so that those of you who need the information can benefit from it we do have a really amazing discount for anyone that does sign up through my video. So the cost for the entirety of Adulting in the Real World which includes the three modules and all the videos along with the handouts worksheets and additional materials is $127 but if you purchase a course using the coupon code Emma50 you will get $50 off the course making it only 77 but this offer does only last until the end of September. You can visit our website adultingintherealworld.com to get more information and check it out if you're interested but you can also sign up for our mailing list there which we push out a lot of free educational content and tips related to Adulting in the Real World and if you're like eager for more content I am starting up our Adulting in the Real World TikTok account where you can find some additional Snippets from the course on there. So if anyone has watched this video up until this point even though it is very different from anything I've ever posted on my channel thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about this project it has been so hard keeping this inside for a full year but truthfully I am so so proud of this project like up there on my list of things in my life that I have been incredibly passionate about with my YouTube career and my career as a counselor goes Adulting in the Real World I really believe that what we teach in this course is invaluable to teens who are just exiting high school or young adults like myself that are under so much stress and difficulty trying to figure out adulthood and I hope that what we are bringing to the table people can help others feel more confident capable and directed in their lives so what I talked about in this video interests you I really recommend heading over to the Adulting in The Real World website and seeing if it is of interest to you and if you would like to purchase the course you absolutely should use the code Emma50 and get it for $50 off.
