For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped roughly 4000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path.

For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped roughly 4000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path.

Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose–and the fallout wasn’t pretty. There was a lot of uncertainty around college majors and future careers. As a result, students weren’t graduating college on time, and even when they did, they often left college underemployed or unemployed altogether.

Gaining college and career clarity not only sets up the student to thrive in college and puts them on the path to future career success, but it’s also beneficial for finding and winning scholarships. More than half of the private scholarships my son won, both in high school and while in college, were directly related to his college major. The other scholarships, while open to students of all majors, were still won due to his compelling Personal Narrative - his story of his plans, with the ability to point to past achievements related to those plans.

Whether your child is in high school or college, if they need clarification about their future career or even their college major, I can think of no better investment than the programs that Lisa and Flourish Coaching offer.

Last year, Isabella, one of my Class of 2024 scholarship coaching students was one of the iSparkle Scholarship winners. This was just one of many scholarships that Isabella won, and I share my interview with Isabella and her mom Heather is this episode.
