The Truth About Changing Careers: It’s Messy, It’s Scary, and It’s Worth It
Well folks, this is where it all started. In this video, I’m taking you back to the very beginning of TW Controls to show you that you don't need an engineering degree, a pile of money, or a fancy building to make it in this industry. I share the real story of starting out with a 12-year-old’s toolbox, building panels by trouble light in a shed with no electricity, and the sacrifices Amber and I made—like starting a company while eight months pregnant. We talk about the importance of ignoring the critics, embracing the "messy" middle where work and family life blend together, and why your response to a bad day can be the turning point for your entire career. Whether you are curious about PLC programming or looking to switch careers, I hope our journey encourages you to stop waiting for the perfect moment and just get started.
