Description

For decades, skilled trades were often treated as Plan B while college was sold as the path to success. That equation may be changing fast. Electrical-industry sales professional Esteban Legarea joins Jim for a conversation about AI and the future of blue-collar work, college debt, learning through experience, building customer relationships, the realities of sales, and accidentally discovering a career he never knew existed. Esteban shares how he went from waiting tables to the warehouse floor and ultimately found a career he genuinely loves.
