Description
Terhune, a recent college graduate, and Hays, a college professor, provide honest, humorous, and helpful suggestions to help readers thrive. Focusing on more than just success in the workplace, the authors offer ten easy-to-follow strategies and practical advice for all points of life—from time management at home and at work to making friends in a new city to budgeting. The book also covers key generational differences, the magic of mentoring, and the millennial validation vacuum. Life After College will help any recent grad build a fulfilling life—in and out of the office.
There is so much more to being happy and healthy post-college than getting a job, and anyone looking to successfully adjust to life beyond college needs to read Life After College.

Hays and Tori Terhune have penned the essential compendium for
post-college life. It is as prescriptive as living with Dr. Phil without
the video. This "food for thought" tome is a real recipe for mastering
the day to day grind of building a five star career that will keep the
graduate professionally prepared and personally fulfilled.

They've done it again! Tori Randolph Terhune and Betsy A. Hays’ forthcoming book, Life After College
is another home run in the authors' book series. Presenting life after
college in a fun and engaging manner, this book succeeds in providing
solid direction for the steps needed after college. A great gift for
every graduate to ensure success and a lifetime of passion in their
careers!

Life After College offers a balanced, sensible approach to life as a young
adult in America. The book is compassionate in its approach and
conversational in tone as it guides readers through the transition from
college student to working professional. It’s about personal branding.
It’s about health and wellbeing. It’s about equanimity–finding that
right balance between who you are and who you want to become. The
narrative is accompanied by great stories of life lessons, told in an
endearing way. Whereas Tori and Betsy’s Land Your Dream Career ought to be read by every college sophomore; Life After College ought to be read by every college senior. It opens the door to the many joys in life that college students want to realize.

provides tools and strategies for not only making it through this
transition, but also thriving during this often tumultuous time.

I found Life After College
to be a well-organized and witty read, relevant to adults in all stages
of life. The “A Story” sections, in which the authors share real-life
experiences, were a nice touch. I could appreciate the authors'
different experiences and journeys for each idea or lesson. Well done,
Tori and Betsy.
