While I've been away from TH-cam, I've been working on a super-secret project called Adulting In The Real World, an online course for teens & young adults to learn how to master adulthood! ARW has become an extremely precious project to me and I hope those of you who choose to take the course will gain the benefits that I have while developing this amazing resource.

This is AMAZING. My husband and I were just talking about how much we wish there had been a class like this when we were in school. There are SO MANY things that we didn't know when we were thrust into the "real world!" My kids need this!! I've got two seniors in high school this year! This is an awesome resource!!!
The fact school requires us to learn things we won’t use after we leave, instead of things like this is actual madness. This is a great project, congrats!
This is so cool, and couldn’t have come at a better time for me as a 19 year old learning how to take care of themself
Love seeing you pursue your passions for helping others using your social media skills. Also love the outfit!
So proud of you for completing this project that I know has meant so much to you!! 🎉
These are the things I remember wanting to be taught when I was at school too! Thank you for making this!
This is absolutely incredible! What an excellent idea Emma!!
Good to see you! So excited for your project!
Love that your doing this!
This is great, very happy for you & bringing this passion project of yours to life! There are a LOT of people that need this kind of guidance.
EMMA!! This is EXACTLY what I have been needing. I’m so proud of you for putting your heart and soul into this. It’s so inspiring to see you pursuing something that was not only beneficial to you, but will be beneficial to all of us. Love and support you always ❤️
OMG, that's soo great!! :) Congrats!
even though i’m dying to see something book related from you, i’m so happy you posted this! so so glad to see you’re taking about something you’re so passionate about and the project genuinely sounds like such an amazing and extremely helpful thing! so proud of you ❤️
This whole look you have going on rn is absolute perfection !
And I’m also very excited about this project as I am officially an “adult” 😀
I’m so proud of you, Emma! Being able to check off all those adulting wins AND make a intensive course AND working full time is amazing. Future you better be so proud of past you.
love this!!! so proud of you emma ❤️❤️
Emma thank you for all you do. You are the literal sunshine we all need in our lives everyday and the best person ever just sayin.
This sounds fantastic!!
This is SO COOL, I always wanted something like this and I'm so glad it finally exists, amazing
Well done, this is a great idea!
What an excellent idea! I make a point to teach my daughter all of these things because I was never taught.
Thank you so much for doing this Emma! I have always found high school and lower level courses than that too to be so useless and then they expect you to suddenly just go out into real life knowing everything. This is such a cool project!
Congratulations on the project it sounds like an awesome resource and one that will help many people.
CONGRATS on your new program!! So proud of you!! I'm turn 30 next year (ahhh!!! 😱😱) and I could really use this course. I'm in grad school now, and while it's really interesting for my specific career goals (young adult/adult librarian), I wish school taught me more about finances, taxes, budgeting, etc. All the "real life shit" I'm not getting in school lol.
Emma this is ......You're changing LIVES with this. In HUGE ways. Sending soooooo much love and support your way.
Nice to see you again Emma
I've been watching your old videos alot recently and I absolutely love it. Miss you 🥰🥰🥰
omg it’s 2 am here im about to fall asleep saw this video screamed and got up to watch it! can’t wait omg ❤️
This is so cool! I wish I'd had something similar when I was younger!
Not me absolutely forgetting I was subscribed to her until this video popped up in my subscriptions. Love your new project and I’m sure is going to be so much helpful, these are the kind of things that we should be learning in school love your initiative.
This sounds like a wonderful class! Wish there was something like this when I was in my late teens early 20s.
I loooooove this so much omg!! something like this would have been beyond helpful when I was graduating hs/in college
Omg Emma are you reading my mind? This is amazing!!!
So glad to see you posting again
Thank you so much!!
Side note to that awesome project you should be very proud of yourself for… I love the early Halloween decor
Such an amazing project.
Genius! Congratulations!
This is such an amazing idea!
this is amazing! wow! bravo
Congratulations ❤
Hi Emma! Idk if you remember me but I’m so excited for you, you’re doing so great ❤
this sounds great!!! as a nineteen y/o freshman in college, it sounds perfect for me. and it’s not super expensive either, which is nice. i’ll start saving now!
As a homeschooling mother, I'm saving this for later! Thanks!
I am in my 30s and even I can see the benefits are not age specific. I think SO many people could gain valuable skills from this. What an incredible project! In my high school we had a dedicated course to this kind of material and it is genuinely invaluable. I hope people take advantage.
It's so strange how things fall into place, I've been going through a rough mental health patch exacerbated by *adulting in your 20s is hard* and I needed a positivity boost and saw this notification and was like EMMA... and stars align?? Anyways, this project sounds amazing and perfect, and I'm so glad you're well!!! xx
Emma this is really wonderful - please get an Australian counter part to edit them for our system!! I would also feel the same way, so frustrating that they don't teach you the basics at home! Parents should help you out, but there's no guarantee. I wish schools offered more!
What an amazing project!!
Ohmygosh I love this!!!!
as someone who graduated within the last year and just signed his first lease a year ago, yeah i'm getting this course
So proud of you Emma!! I know this is going to change lives. Is there an option to just purchase one of the modules or is there just the option to buy the full thing?
Fantastic!
Hello hello hello!!
We had a personal finance course in high school that was mandatory and I learned NOTHING about how to be an adult. This is amazing
this is perfect timing now that im 18
This looks amazing, I've often said that there was a whole bunch of things that have been missed out in my education. The only thing that concerns me is that the worksheets might make it inaccessible for autistic and ADHD people. And other neurodivergent people, potentially, but I know less about other neurodivergences, so I don't want to speak out of turn.
Wait so all this time you said "Hey what's up hello" ?? I always thought it was "hey what's the pillow" and always wondered what it meant... now I know 😂
This aside, your project is amazing and so important ! Thank you ❤
I took consumer math in high school but I wish I had learned a positive body image
Not this showing up right when I decide to move to another state❤❤❤
I maybe missed this but how long do you have access to the course for?
I'm italian, some things can be different to applicate as countries have their laws etc (I'm talking in general). Can the course be applied by everyone, everywhere?
Hey Emma! I love this idea so much! Unfortunately the link is broken for me, I'm not sure if it is for other people as well, but I'm commenting just in case it also is unavailable for others :)
Aw that’s so strange as I just clicked on it and it worked for me! If anyone else is having trouble let me know otherwise you can definitely search Adulting in the Real World on google!
There is a series done by hank green called adulting i think
Are you able to purchase the course as a gift for someone?
Welcome back! ☕📚🪴🎃👻🥮🍂🍁🍂
I think it would be better if it wasn’t so expensive. Like, I want to know all of this stuff, but I cannot afford a 127 dollar course. I don’t think a lot of students have that much money lying around to spend on a whim
Hi Emma, I have a question regarding your graduate studies. I’m interested in going to graduate school to be a counselor helping people overcome anxiety and depression. What area of counseling did you go to graduate school for? I first started watching you for book tube, and now I also watch for your journey into the world of counseling. Thank you! 🙂
I got my master's in clinical mental health counseling, which I really recommend for people looking into being a traditional therapist. mental health counseling has a large strength-based approach vs the medical model and multiculturalism is a major focus. i think it's a wonderful field because it is growing exponentially with a lot of job opportunities. one of the main perks is that you ONLY need your master's and can start working immediately after grad school while obtaining hours for your license. the downsides are there is no license reciprocity between states, meaning you have to get licensed in each individual state if you move, and we currently dont have "diagnostic authority" to provide legal documentation of diagnosis without a psychiatrist's primary diagnosis, but there is active legislation across the country that is making it easier to do both. also, mental health counselors cannot work in schools if that was your goal, but i believe that is also in the process of changing. i hope this was helpful and am wishing you the best of luck with your studies!
Thank you so much Emma! Yes this really helped! 🙂
I'm 34 and tbh I still don't understand taxes or health insurance.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Is this information targeted towards individuals in the United States or worldwide?
she said in the video that the general information is applicable to anyone, but there are some topics covered that are specific to America, eg, how to access healthcare.
I thought this was a wonderful idea, finally a group of people who understands what it's like, growing up, not knowing how real life works because school didn't prepare you for it, suddenly having all these responsibilities you don't know how to handle, and not everyone has someone they can ask. Maybe you don't have any friends, or your friends are still in school, and maybe you can't ask your parents either. And that this group of people, who've been where you are, have come together to lay out the most important information you need to know, truly made me so excited for this course, that I clicked the link open before you even finished talking about it. That's when my jaw dropped upon seeing the price. I am not from America, so the whole course wouldn't apply to me, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't benefit from learning how to organize my chaotic life or learn how to save money, how to get a job, how to shop smart etc. But where I live, we don't make 20 dollars per hour, it's closer to 4 dollars per hour here, which makes this course unaffordable, even with the big discount (which btw, is only an indication about how overpriced the course is). Guess help is really only for the rich and the poor need to figure things out for themselves
I’m really sorry to hear the course isn’t accessible for you even with the discount, I definitely understand the financial barriers to accessing resources all over the world. I personally had no input on the price of the course myself, but I do feel it’s reasonable given the work that was put into creating it.
To add a different perspective, I spent at least 25 hours just filming the modules, which if we were considering nyc’s minimum wage of $15 per hour, that would be $450 of costs for my filming and that’s not including the cost of the countless hours of research, worksheet and PowerPoint creation, our editor, our marketing team, equiptment software and subscriptions, and so much more I couldn’t even quantify. That’s not at all to negate the very real fact that people definitely won’t be able to afford the course, but just to share that our team put immense work into creating this course for over a year and we have to balance making the course affordable to a population we know is struggling financially with the cost of production.
If you are looking for free tools based on the topics I described, our mailing list sends out information just for being subscribed and I’m working on creating TikToks that share info directly from the course totally for free as well. I hope that these resources that we can offer will be able to help provide you with some of the info without having to purchase the course if you can’t :)
This would be good for people with disabilities like autism and aspergers
This is going to help SO many people! Thank you for all your guys hard work with the course & for making it affordable/accessible 🫶🏻
