Clarity Unlocked
About Yes15
The Spark
In early 2025, I found myself on the other side of the hiring table: unemployed, unsure, and looking for direction. I had ideas and the yearning to build something meaningful, but I couldn’t find the conversations that would get me clarity.
I didn't need a guru or another course. I also didn’t need a motivational post nor an inspirational video. I needed fifteen honest minutes with someone who’d just walked the same road.
That’s when it hit me: it’s not opportunity we’re missing. It’s access to real, human guidance.
That realization became the seed of Yes15: a space where lived experience becomes the bridge between uncertainty and clarity, and where generosity fuels momentum.
For someone outside the tech world, turning a personal pain point into a platform might seem ambitious. But in a moment marked by layoffs, uncertainty, and noise, I leaned into the discomfort and built what I wished existed. Because real progress doesn’t come from titles or trends, it comes from people showing up for each other, one conversation at a time.

The Shift
We stripped away the polish so people can show up as they are.
No filters. No rehearsed monologues. Just short, sincere conversations that reconnect us to what matters: humans helping humans.
Yes15 is built on peer wisdom and reciprocity.
It’s not about experts ten steps ahead. It’s about people one step ahead who’ve lived what you’re facing now.
And when someone understands your situation from the inside, fifteen minutes can change everything.
This is micro-mentorship made simple.
Relatable clarity through human connection.
The Foundations
Rehumanizing Connection
Social media taught us to broadcast.
Yes15 brings us back to dialogue: real voices, real stories, real support.
Celebrating
Peer Wisdom
The most useful guidance doesn’t come from the top. It comes from peers who’ve been where you are. Peer wisdom is relatable, actionable, and instantly grounding.
Connecting Through
Reciprocity
Some days you seek clarity.
Other days you offer it.
Reciprocity keeps the community honest, generous, and alive. It’s the engine that makes Yes15 work.
The Vision
We’re building a world where connection feels human again.
Where fifteen minutes with someone who’s lived what you’re facing can shift doubt into direction.
Where peer wisdom, reciprocity, and human connection shape how we support each other through life’s real transitions.
Yes15 exists because the future of progress isn’t powered by algorithms. It’s powered by people.

Celebrating Peer Wisdom
YES:15 is built on a belief: the most useful advice doesn’t come from gurus ten steps above, but from peers just one step ahead. Peer wisdom is more relatable, more actionable, and more clarifying. It's the kind of advice that helps you take your next step with confidence.

Connecting Through Reciprocity
Reciprocity is what binds us together. In Yes15, you don’t stay in one role—some days you’re a Seeker, asking for clarity, and other days you’re a Guide, sharing what you’ve lived. Every conversation is an act of generosity, proof that we rise by giving and receiving.
You're lived experience is someone else's clarity.
