This week you are in for a treat as I sit down with the person who started it all for me, Steve Wunch! If you know my story, you know if was sitting in Steve's training class 14 YEARS AGO ? that made me want to be in L&D.

This episode is special for so many reasons, but what's amazing is that it is 100% UNSCRIPTED. I usually have an idea of where I want to go with my guests, but this episode is just me and Steve hanging out, and you are invited into our own L&D party!

We LITERALLY talk about EVERYTHING including:

⭐️ Steve's journey going from an "overnight trainer" to an L&D leader and expert

⭐️ How he got his foot in the L&D door, and his advice on how to get yours in, too

⭐️ Why you shouldn't be afraid to raise your hand and ask for more

⭐️ Why street cred is just as valuable (if not more) than getting a traditional education in L&D

⭐️ How to prioritize training requests within an organization, and when and how to say no

⭐️ Why training should be impactful, not just fun!

⭐️ His advice for anyone trying to break in to L&D and how to make sure your "why" is aligned with your career choice
