Have her set up a LinkedIn profile and explore profiles of other people. It’s illuminating to see the career paths of people who’ve been working 10, 20, 30 years. She’ll learn that very few people travel a straight path. It also tells you the types of things that are out there.

Has she taken any philosophy courses? Philosophy would be a good major for someone like your daughter, and she can go in any direction with it.
