In this episode of The Between Podcast, we continue our Starting Anew series with Sara Montooth, a former high school counselor turned nonprofit program manager at Project Next. Sara shares her inspiring journey of transitioning from guiding students one-on-one to shaping programs that empower schools to help students figure out what’s next in their lives.

Join us as we discuss the evolving challenges students face in today’s world, what Sara has learned about career trajectories and future workforce trends, and how schools can better prepare young people for the road ahead. Sara also opens up about the courage it takes to make a career shift, the habits that helped her navigate change, and the importance of filling your own cup when working in a people-centered field.
