Meet Kristin Clark

A Career Exploration Coach

for16 to 26-year-olds

If you’re here, you’re likely supporting your teen through one of the most uncertain times of their life.

They’re capable. And yet, when it comes to college, career, or life after high school or college, they feel confused, frustrated, or completely stuck.

I help teens gain clarity about who they are so they can make confident, informed decisions about what comes next, before making expensive or wrong choices.

Whether they’re choosing a college major, questioning if college is the right move, or in a first job that feels completely wrong, it all starts with one thing: understanding who they are and where they want to go.

Why understanding who they are comes before college or career strategy

Too often, teens are asked to make major life decisions before they truly understand themselves. The result is stress, disengagement, second-guessing, and costly detours.

I flip that script

When your child understands what makes them tick:

  • Knowing their natural strengths

  • Discovering the environments they thrive in

  • Knowing which kind of work will keep them excited and proud of what they do

Choosing a major (or deciding not to go to college) becomes easier. Finding internships becomes intentional. And graduating into a job they love becomes easy.

When young people know who they are, they move forward with confidence.

Why Kristin?

  • I spent 20+ years navigating corporate life and building my own businesses. (And I’ve trained lots of 20-somethings in those worlds!)

  • I start with strengths. I’m a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach

  • I specialize in working with teens and 20-somethings

  • I keep parents updated on progress, seek your input, and coach you on how to keep the momentum going long-term

I’m all about action. Your child will feel like they are moving forward right away because the coaching is broken down into bite-sized decisions.

They don’t need to have it all figured out; they just need to know what direction they are headed.

I help your kid know they can:

  • Make good career decisions for themselves

  • Make adjustments and fine-tune their career plan as they get exposed to more ideas/information/experiences

  • Lean into how they are unique (in the best ways) and have amazing talents
