Description

Imagine a world where the unexpected can lead you down a whole new career path, and you're more than ready to embrace it. That's exactly what our guest, Jason Rojas, experienced when he transitioned from a 20-year career as a massage therapist to the fascinating world of IT and cybersecurity. In this riveting episode, we not only hear about Jason's incredible journey but also explore the challenges of learning a new career path and the importance of having a strong support system.

Did you know that hands-on learning can be crucial for those with OCD and ADHD? We dive deep into this topic, sharing personal experiences and discussing how hands-on learning has been a key factor in our success. Furthermore, we discuss the importance of soft skills in the IT and cybersecurity industries and how they can sometimes be more valuable than technical education.

As we wrap up this episode, we take a moment to ponder the significance of finding your 'why.' Having a strong enough reason to pursue your goals can make or break your success, especially when faced with obstacles along the way. We also touch on the importance of giving back to the community and embracing our cyber warrior family.
