Here at WehnerEd, our mission is to enable you to unlock your greatest value, discover your true purpose, and to live a life that fulfills your deepest passions through that work you love. In each episode, we explore tech roles that positively impact the world, uncover the straightest path to earning a career that you’ll love, and provide meaningful insights to help you be your best.

Today our guest is Jeremy Schifeling. Formerly a kindergarten teacher, he’s now a published best-selling author and motivational speaker who has worked at big-name companies including Apple and LinkedIn. These days he works full time at Break Into Tech, a company he founded to help students make the journey into technology and to earn jobs that continually define the world we live in. He and I have an engaging conversation today about inspired individuals who pursue work that fulfills their deepest purposes and address some of the common misconceptions about working in tech. I learned plenty along the way while we recorded this episode and expect that you will as well.
