Find Your Path to Success In Just Weeks—Even If Your Teen Has No Idea Where to Start or Feels Overwhelmed by Choices
Are you worried your teen feels lost about their future, anxious about making the “right” career choice, or unsure how to explore the world of work beyond school? Do you wish there was a step-by-step guide, modern, relatable, and practical, that takes the stress out of career planning for both teens and their families? Are you a teacher or counselor searching for tools that are actually engaging, actionable, and sensitive to every student’s background?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you’re not alone. Today’s teens, and their parents, face more options, more pressure, and more uncertainty than ever before. But with the right support, guidance, and a clear roadmap, exploring careers can become a confidence-building adventure, not a source of anxiety.
Career Planning for Teens Made Simple is the empowering, hands-on guide that helps teens (and their supporters) discover real-world interests, plan practical next steps, and build future-ready skills, without the overwhelm, jargon, or outdated advice.
Here’s just a preview of what you’ll find inside:

• The 6-step “Dream Job Roadmap”—from self-discovery to landing real experience, broken down for everyday life and busy schedules
• 5 quick self-assessment quizzes to reveal strengths, interests, and hidden talents—even if your teen “has no idea” what they’re good at
• Modern career spotlights: Explore trending, creative, and unconventional jobs—beyond doctor, lawyer, or engineer
• Relatable “day-in-the-life” stories and interviews from real professionals, including young adults and diverse voices
• SMART goal worksheets and vision board templates to turn dreams into actionable plans (with examples for college, trades, entrepreneurship, and gap years)
• Mini-missions at the end of every chapter, bite-sized, confidence-boosting tasks for immediate progress
• Step-by-step guides to job shadowing, volunteering, internships, and part-time gigs—for all locations and backgrounds, no connections required
• Simple resume and cover letter templates for first-timers, perfect for teens with little or no job experience
• Straightforward networking tips—how to reach out, DM, and find mentors (without the awkwardness)
• College vs. Alternatives Scorecards: Transparent, side-by-side comparisons of 2-year, 4-year, trade, and direct-to-work paths
• Financial basics for teens: Budgeting, understanding paychecks, and what to know about loans—without the boring lectures
• Scripts and checklists for healthy parent-teen career conversations—reduce family stress and encourage real listening

And so much more!
