In this episode of Career Coaching Secrets, host Pedro sits down with Chris Greene, co-founder of YoPro, a career development program designed to help college students and recent graduates turn who they are into confidence, clarity, and career momentum.

After being laid off from a successful career in advertising—working with global brands like Bank of America, American Express, and Marriott—Chris made the leap into entrepreneurship to address a critical gap between college and the workforce. He shares how real-world hiring experience, deep research, and practical coaching became the foundation of YoPro’s high-touch, results-driven model.

Chris breaks down how YoPro scales without sacrificing quality, why one-on-one coaching beats cookie-cutter solutions, and how his team empowers former HR professionals—many of them women who left the workforce during COVID—to re-enter work with flexibility and purpose. The conversation also dives into pricing with confidence, building capacity responsibly, teaching accountability to young professionals, and why success truly comes from getting great at being you.
