What is going on everyone, welcome to the 13th episode of How They’re Here. As always I’m Tyler Webb, and last week I was fortunate enough to talk with career coach, teacher, author, speaker and the inspiration for this podcast, Chad Ellsworth.
I know I’ve told this story before, but for those of you who don’t know; Chad taught a class that I was in called “Career Skills” where we learned everything from job interview skills to LinkedIn formatting. This class got me thinking about the unformalized nature of our careers and education, and how there was a gap in our ability to learn about specific professions because they just aren’t taught in school.
I started the podcast by telling Chad this story, and then we got into what I believe to be the most valuable content about college, jobs and life that I’ve had the privilege of sharing.
We touch on everything from how to pick the right career (or if there even is such a thing), the value going and not going to college, how to deal with a dissonance of interests and career, his new book on heroic leadership and so much more.
I hope you all enjoy this episode, and learn a thing or two about how to navigate your own professional lives and gain some valuable insight into how they’re here.
