At Kristin Clark Coaching, we believe career planning shouldn’t be a last-minute panic move.
If you’ve got a teen, college student, or young adult who’s unsure about their future, you’re not alone. The truth is, most students are checking boxes to get into college without ever stopping to ask the bigger question: Why am I going? And what happens after?
We help 16–26-year-olds take control of their career path early so they can stop spinning, start building, and walk into their future with clarity and confidence.
Whether they’re choosing a college major, questioning if college is even the right move, or sitting in a first job that feels completely wrong, it all starts with one thing: understanding who they are and where they want to go.
Real Career Planning Starts With Who, Not Where
High school counselors and college consultants do a great job getting kids INTO college. But when it comes to actual career planning? Most skip that part.
We flip the script.
Career planning for teens and young adults should be about uncovering what makes them tick:
What are their natural strengths?
What environments will let them thrive?
What kinds of work will keep them engaged and proud of what they do?
Once they know that, choosing a major (or deciding not to go to college) becomes easier. Finding internships becomes intentional. And graduating into a job they love isn’t a miracle; it’s a result of strategy.
We don’t hand them a career. We teach them how to build one.
Career Coaching for Teens, College Students, and Young Adults
Our coaching programs are designed for clarity, not chaos. We work with families across the U.S. who are ready to stop guessing and start guiding.
We help:
High school students who don’t know what they want to major in
Students questioning whether college is the right path at all
College students considering a major change
Graduating seniors who have no idea what to do next
20-somethings stuck in a job that makes them miserable
Our approach is part coaching, part strategy, and a whole lot of “let’s make a real plan that actually works.”
Because when your kid knows who they are, they make decisions with more confidence and less regret.
Career Planning That’s Built to Last
This isn’t one-size-fits-all advice. We use tools like the CliftonStrengths® assessment and interest inventories to help your student connect the dots between what they're good at, what they care about, and where they want to go.
From there, we coach them through a step-by-step framework to explore:
Career options that align with their strengths
College majors that support their goals
Education paths that actually make sense (and cents)
How to build a career they’ll love waking up to
It’s not about forcing them to “figure it all out.” It’s about equipping them to take the next smart step with clarity and direction.
Ready to Stop the Guessing Game?
If you’re a parent watching your teen or 20-something spin in circles, or if you are that 20-something, you don’t have to keep winging it.
Let’s get intentional. Let’s get strategic. Let’s get clear.
Because real career planning doesn’t start with picking a college.
It starts with picking a direction that fits who they are.
