Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Coastlines to Cranes, Shandon explores the generational shift reshaping the future of the workforce - how Gen Z is increasingly choosing the trades over traditional college paths. From the lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the rising cost of living and a growing unwillingness to take on burdensome student loan debt, young people are rethinking what success looks like. Shandon also shares the inspiring story of an apprentice who made a complete career pivot into the trades, finding not only professional success but also deep personal fulfillment. It’s a conversation that reveals why the trades are more relevant - and rewarding - than ever.Want to connect with Shandon? Connect on LinkedInInterested in becoming a member of ABC San Diego?
