Description

Let's tackle a question that’s weighing on the minds of many young adults: How do you prepare for a future that feels uncertain, especially with AI and other rapid changes shaping the job market?

Our conversation reflects on recent student events like Apex and Basecamp, where “shift” and “change” were central themes. We dive into how these massive shifts in technology are actually affecting the job market for young adults:

• Why fear of change is nothing new (and why this generation’s version just happens to look like AI).
• How past technological shifts like the rise of the internet and social media mirror today’s conversations about AI.
• Why some skills never go out of demand, even when industries and tools change.
• The difference between being paralyzed by uncertainty vs. seeing it as an opportunity to pioneer new approaches.
• How a Christian worldview provides both grounding and hope when facing the unknown.

Whether you’re a student wondering what career to pursue, a parent supporting a young adult, or simply someone trying to make sense of cultural and technological upheaval, we hope this conversation will encourage you to see change not just as a threat, but as a doorway to new opportunities.
