Escaping the Cycle of Doubt at College shares research that was done in 2020 from the Journal of Postsecondary Education and Disability called "It's a Constant Fight: Experiences of College Students with Disabilities." In the research, students share their feelings of disempowerment at college, but it also shares instances where they were feeling empowered and accomplished. Episode 71 also includes snippets from Cathi Allen about transitioning out of high school, Jimmy, an LD student who shares his thoughts about reaching out to faculty, and Charlie Kirkham, a college student with autism who share the importance of establishing peer relationships. The goal of Episode 71 is to show parents and teachers how they can prepare their teens for college and avoid some of the pitfalls the students in the research experienced.
