Please explain how the Peace Corps is similar? It's not about exploring new frontiers, nor does it have a military component. Nor does it especially involve advanced and exciting science and/or advanced and exciting technology (of course scientific expertise is useful for some aspects of the Peace Corps, such as the forestry service, but it's usually not cutting-edge).

Just "it's idealistic and is about improving the world!" is not really enough of a similarity to me. In fact the core mission of the Peace Corps directly contradicts the core precept of Starfleet's Prime Directive.

A better recommendation would to say they should explore careers in science that involve the outdoors and exploration, such as geology or xenobiology or astrophysics. Such expertise may also be applicable in a military setting, so they might want to consider a scientific or technological career through the military. Like specializing in hyperbaric medicine with the Navy or better yet, aerospace medicine with the Air Force (this is assuming they are American; other countries often have similar career tracks within their own militaries). This sounds a lot more like a Starfleet-inspired life imho.

it seems apt to me - travel to 'strange' countries, exchange cultural ideas and offer practical assistance in a variety of ways, including scientific shit like IT and medicine. the Peace Corps also has less of a political agenda than the military or even organizations like the CDC, which gives them the (relative) freedom to be altruistic.

and, frankly, since most of the OP's secret was about a lack of ambition and motivation, the Peace Corps is a much more attainable goal than a career in astrophysics or a science track in the military. if all this secret said was "I wish I could join Starfleet IRL," I'd agree with you 100%.
