NEW RELEASE: Navigating the Quarterlife Career Crisis: Real Stress, Real Solutions by Scott Doyne

There's no shortage of people telling Gen Z what to do. What's been missing is someone who actually asked.

Scott Doyne spent 25+ years in sports media before becoming an ICF-certified career coach. He’s helped hundreds of clients, including more than a third who are young professionals under 30. He saw firsthand how lost, stuck, and anxious young people felt about their careers. So he interviewed and surveyed hundreds of 18–25-year-olds to find out what was really going on.

Using insights and real advice from Gen Z, he wrote the book they told him they needed: real talk on fear of failure, career path uncertainty, the job search, social media, AI, family pressure, and the full weight of adulting—backed by data, driven by their own words.

His promise: if you can reduce your career anxiety, you will have a more fulfilling life. This book helps you get there.

As a parent, mentor, teacher and career coach of 18 to 25 year olds, I’m concerned about the level of career stress this generation is experiencing.

Over the past year, I conducted extensive research on Gen Z to better understand the situation and find out what resources they’d like to have access to.

I am now excited to share these insights in my new book, 𝙉𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝘾𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙨: 𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨, 𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙎𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨: https://a.co/d/0fdYgpXJ

This is a powerful primer for parents trying to help your children navigate unprecedented anxiety without getting eye rolls in return.

Inside, readers will discover:
* The most common causes of Gen Z career stress
* How to effectively navigate AI, social media, and fear of failure
* Practical approaches to mentoring, networking, and stress relief
* A comprehensive resource list including underutilized college and career tools

You can get a copy for yourself or give it as a loving gift, allowing me to share a message of empathy and empowerment.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗜 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴?

As a business person who has worked with emerging technology my whole career, one thing stands out – you can’t ignore change.

Whether it was the Internet, mobile apps, or social media, my mandate as a digital sports media leader was to provide relevant modern engagement opportunities for fans.

Over a decade ago, my first time being aware of AI was partnering with the NBA on a presentation at a conference featuring capabilities from SAP’s HANA architecture that leveraged natural language processing for a groundbreaking new basketball statistics interface. I didn’t understand it all, but I paid attention and we created a unique and useful consumer experience.

At another conference a few years later, I saw a presentation about AI that was unveiling the possibilities, but also the limitations. See the 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘩𝘶𝘢𝘩𝘶𝘢 𝘷𝘴 𝘉𝘭𝘶𝘦𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘮𝘶𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘯 meme in the comments for reference.

In my new chapter as a certified career coach, I am continuing to analyze what’s possible with AI, this time as a partner for my client’s professional aspirations.

Here’s one recent Supra podcast on the topic that described a product leader’s process for building an AI career coach for herself and 30+ women at her company: https://substack.com/app-link/post?publication_id=2381422&post_id=167710079

As I continue to explore this new terrain, here are my current takeaways…

Differentiated Value of an AI career Coach:
- Unlimited on demand availability
- Perfect memory/recall

Similar value - Sounding board, thinking partner

Challenges:
- Self prompt bias
- AI echoing what you want to hear vs what you need to hear
- Delivery of what you say you want vs what you really want

An unexpected aha:
- The potential of partnering with an AI coach with a voice and/or face versus just text. In particular, one of the co-hosts chose a British accent to make it seem smarter.

Open items:
- Non-judgmental - can AI be truly objective or will it always be a self-fulfilling prophecy
- Notion of privacy as a benefit, but is it really private?
- More confirmation bias around the certainty gained from the process. Is this a risk or can false confidence be an unmitigated value?
- Enables what feels like an exhausting optimization addiction - is there a threshold for diminishing returns?
- How well does AI serve as an accountability partner?
- How far away are we from recognition of facial micro-expressions and subtle tone of voice fluctuations?

The capabilities are impressive and evolving quickly, but I can’t help but think we lose something important in the process of de-humanizing empathy.

After all, I’m trying my best to embrace new technologies and not be defensive, but I’m still human. 😉
