Ready Set Reset: Stress Support for College Students
College can be exciting, challenging, overwhelming, and unpredictable, sometimes all in the same day.
Over the years, I’ve worked with many bright, capable college students who are doing everything they can to keep up academically and socially while also managing stress, anxiety, self-doubt, and the pressure to succeed. I’ve also watched my own four children navigate many of those same challenges during their college years.
That experience led me to create Ready...Set...Reset!, a portable toolkit designed to give college students practical ways to pause, regroup, and feel more grounded when life starts to feel like too much.
The Idea Started With One College Student
The idea for Ready...Set...Reset! came directly from a conversation with one of my clients.
At the end of a session, a college student told me she wished she could carry me around campus with her.
I knew exactly what she meant.
The tools we were using together were helping her in our sessions, but the difficult moments rarely happened while she was sitting in my office. They happened late at night before an exam. They happened when she needed to focus on an assignment. They happened before walking into a social situation that made her nervous.
I started wondering whether I could create something she could actually carry with her and reach for when one of those moments arrived.
That question eventually became Ready...Set...Reset!
Ready..Set..Reset is a portable reset kit designed for teens and college students navigating the pressure points of academic and social life — compact enough to toss in a backpack, ready the moment they need to hit pause. A multi-sensory toolkit engaging sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste helps students reset in the moment, anywhere anxiety or overwhelm shows up. Guided audio resets — Test Day Reset, Focus Reset, Jump In Reset, and Magic Ball Reset — pair with affirmation cards built around resilience, momentum, and confidence, each one designed to interrupt spiraling thoughts and rewire the pattern. Rooted in nervous system science, delivered in a direct, peer-voice tone. One reset away from okay.

“We had an incredible experience with Liz! My daughter had been struggling with some issues after trying several other approaches, we decided to give Liz a try. I wasn’t sure what to expect but the results were immediate and have made a positive impaction my daughter’s day to day. Liz is an excellent listener, compassionate and kind. After the first session, she was given tools to use as needed. I’m beyond grateful for the positive impact this has had on my daughter!” - Stephanie
A Reset That Engages More Than Your Thoughts
Stress and overwhelm can affect the way we think, feel, and experience what is happening around us. I wanted this kit to give students several different ways to interrupt that experience and reconnect with the present moment.
Ready...Set...Reset! uses a combination of sound, sight, touch, smell, and taste. Students can choose the tools that make sense for whatever they are experiencing at the time.
Inside the kit are:
Four guided audio Resets, including Test Day Reset, Focus Reset, Jump In Reset, and Magic Ball Reset
Affirmation cards focused on resilience, momentum, and confidence
A Magic Ball
Yogi calming teas
Calm magnesium supplements
A worry stone
Aromatherapy nasal inhalers
The guided audio can be accessed through a QR code included with the kit, with no additional app required. Riverwalk Coaching & Hypnosis
Students do not need to use everything at once. Someone might listen to a Focus Reset before sitting down to study, carry the worry stone into an exam, or use a guided Reset and tea at the end of a difficult day.
The goal is to have a few practical options available when they need them.
Designed for Real College Life
I wanted Ready...Set...Reset! to be something students would actually use.
Everything fits into a canvas drawstring pouch that can be kept in a backpack, dorm room, or apartment. There is no complicated process to follow and no expectation that every tool will work in every situation.
Students can simply reach for the thing that feels helpful in that moment.
That is especially important during college, when stress can show up almost anywhere: before an exam, during a demanding week, while trying to meet new people, or when thoughts start spiraling late at night.
Ready...Set...Reset! gives students another set of tools they can keep close by.
A Resource for Parents, Too
I also created this with parents in mind.
Sending a child to college can bring its own kind of helplessness. You want them to become independent, while still wanting to be able to help when you know they are having a difficult week.
Ready...Set...Reset! can be a practical care package for a student starting college, preparing for finals, returning for another semester, or simply going through a stressful period.
It is a way of saying, Here are a few things you can reach for when you need a moment to reset.
The kit is designed as a self-regulation and coping resource. It does not replace therapy, medication, or other professional care a student may already be receiving.
One Reset Away From Okay
Ready...Set...Reset! grew out of my work with students, my experience as a mother, and a desire to give young adults something tangible they could take with them into everyday life.
Sometimes we cannot remove the difficult test, the crowded room, the demanding week, or the uncertainty ahead.
We can give ourselves tools for meeting those moments differently.
That is what I hope Ready...Set...Reset! can offer.
Ready...Set...Reset! is now available for $99 with free shipping.
