Cut through the chaos and find the path that’s right for you! Deciding what to do after high school is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make. And that’s a lot of pressure to deal with (especially when everyone else is telling you what they think you should be doing)! Undecided will help you come to grips with this often-overwhelming time of transition by putting the decision-making power back where it belongs: with you. Undecided begins by helping students think seriously about who they are and what they want and then moves on to dissect the various options that are available after high school, such as enrolling in a training program, attending a community college, taking a gap year, enlisting in the military, pursuing a traditional four-year degree, and more. It also takes an in-depth look at how to manage student debt, what you can expect to earn, the kind of lifestyle you may lead, and the possible pitfalls of all of these scenarios. Full of checklists, anecdotes, brainstorming activities, and journal exercises, this book will help you stop procrastinating, put your stress aside, and get busy living.

In high school, everyone's talking about college. What to do. Where to go. Why it's important. Classes are given on it. Books are written about it. But details get left out. Every year, college graduates learn this the hard way as they step into adulthood. I was one of them. After earning a four-year degree, I went through two of the worst years of my life. Not that my situation is unique. I am a part of a generation that was told to go to college first and sort out the details later. Most of us did. We chased the promise of a big shiny future, and we ended up being chased by the mistakes of our past. That's not to say we completely regretted going. This book isn't a list of privileged millennial complaints. It's a collection of wisdom gained in less than pleasant ways. It's a story of hardship, failure, victory, and perseverance. It's all of the things we wish someone had told us. And it takes place before college, in college, after college, and without college. This is the wild, painful, awkward, hilarious, depressing, & beautiful journey from youth to maturity. This is the college book that no one ever gave us.

#What's Next After High School guides parents and their high school students in partnering together to choose the right career so they'll love the work they do and live the life they desire. Choosing the right career from the start saves time, money and frustration and helps to fast track your career.As a career coach, Murphy has seen young adults in her practice who went to college without knowing what they would be doing with the degree that they just earned. What should be such a joyous occasion, upon graduation they are usually, stressed, frustrated and at a loss for what to do next. This is a problem for not only the young adult but also their parents who are worried things are not turning out as they had hoped for their child.Through her T.R.U.S.T.(TM) system, Murphy provides parents and their sons and daughters with a means to partner as a team in having the "what's next" conversation in an engaging and purposeful manner with everyone being heard. This model helps to create an open environment for discussion without judgment. T.R.U.S.T.(TM) enables parents and students to not only engage in healthy career and life planning discussions but it also results in a closer bond between parents and their young adult.The book provides step by step details on determining whether or not a career is the right fit.The advice in this book can save students from starting their careers on the wrong foot based on the incomplete or wrong information.It's much easier to begin this journey on the right path than to change course midway. As a career coach, I've seen it both ways.The career trajectory of an individual starting off doing something that feels right and natural for them and something they're excited about is much more rewarding and productive than someone who is unsure why they're doing what they're doing and feel a void in their work.
