I’m a high school senior planning to study neuroscience and psychology, especially children’s development. At the same time, I’m strongly drawn to more technical fields like biotechnology and even physics. I’ll be starting in August at Baylor or Loyola Chicago, but I’m already considering transferring into a more research-intensive STEM environment.

What paths would you recommend for someone who wants both deep research involvement and long-term flexibility? #Spring26

Feeling lost - working as PM for 3 years. Career advice please
I've been working full time for 3 years as a product manager and I still feel as lost as ever. It's hard seeing friends getting promoted and leaving the company for better opportunities, but I'm still stuck here. People say you should try as many things as possible in your 20s and I want to do that, but it's almost if I'm not given the opportunity to try different things. I studied psychology and health science in undergrad and have been a product manager the past few years. Sometimes, I think about what if I pursued a career in healthcare... I'm currently not in a role that I think I'm good at and I'm not in a company that I see growth in, I have been thinking about masters/MBA but that in itself requires a lot of soul searching to understand what I want out of it and I fear I don't have the answer for that besides I want to be a well rounded person as someone who didn't study business. In parallel, I've been looking for jobs the past 1.5 year and I haven't had any successes. While I'm grateful I still have a job despite all the layoffs happening, I can't help to want to 'start over' and it has really impacted my self confidence and self esteem in other parts of my life as well. If anyone has ever been in my shoes, I would really love some guidance or share personal stories. I'm currently trying to find a career coach that can help me with this stage of my life.

How can I choose the right job or college to catered towards what I want to do for my career to be an Author?
I am 19, I graduated high-school last year. I was class of 2025 in June. My original plan was to attend college like everyone and my parents wanted. I did online but things got hectic for me so I left. I've never had a job. I know that writing is my passion. I would love to become an Author one day. But I still unfortunately struggle to get a job because well what I've been taught is that I need a degree or start from just any random job just so I could be successful. But it stresses me because something I learned about myself is I am not interested in school as much. I know I want to learn but I want to decide my success for itself because I always let what everyone says affect what I do. I just want advice on how I can find a decent job or school that I like without compromising what I want to do. I know my success is not the same as anyone else's but the point is that I want to do something I love for the rest of my life, not something I hate.
