Week 1
It’s Time We Talk
Career discovery grows through conversation.
A seven-part, conversation-based video series that illustrates the kinds of reflective conversations the Career Self-Discovery Framework can help open. Across seven themes, students explore questions about identity, values, strengths, how they work with others, the patterns they are noticing, where those insights might lead, and what they want to carry forward.
The course series
Seven conversations. One unfolding story.
Created for use in a college or university course, each episode introduces a different dimension of career self-discovery and invites students to connect the conversation to their own experiences.
Why conversation matters
Reflection becomes more powerful when students have language for what they are noticing.
It’s Time We Talk creates an accessible opening for the kinds of conversations students often need but may not know how to begin. Each video centers a reflective question and invites students to connect ideas to their own experiences.
The series supports the same human-centered purpose as the framework. It helps students listen to themselves, notice patterns, and bring richer insight into conversations with educators.

In learning spaces
Designed to open dialogue, not close it.
The videos can introduce reflective conversations in a course, advising setting, workshop, or other educational environment. They are meant to prompt thought and support connection, leaving space for each student’s own story.
