Think being a pilot is all about cool uniforms and exotic destinations? Think again.
This episode is a bit of a departure from the usual Smart Growth Rocket programming, but in the best way possible.
Every once in a while, we dive into less conventional journeys.
And today? It's all about aviation.
In this episode of Smart Growth Rocket, Francesca Cadhit speaks with a licensed pilot-in-training who’s currently climbing the ranks in aviation - and has chosen to remain anonymous so they can speak candidly about the journey, challenges, and realities of becoming a pilot in Canada.
Whether you’re a curious student, a career switcher, or someone who’s always looked up when a plane flew overhead, this conversation pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to break into the skies.
🎧 ▶ Here’s some of what you'll learn:
✅ How to get your pilot’s license in Canada
✅ What flight school is really like
✅ Why soft skills like humility and decision-making under pressure matter
✅ The truth about pilot job security, travel schedules, and lifestyle trade-offs
What to do before you spend thousands on aviation school
