Join Turg and Randy Z and their special guest Janice Llamoca - multimedia freelance journalist and associate producer for NPR's Latino USA - as they discuss Janice's journey through her 20s into her 30s as she climbed the ranks in her career as a journalist and producer.
Where does a journey start and end?
That is the question often asked, but rarely answered. It's difficult to know where life will take you throughout your journey. But, there's one thing you can always rely on, your sense of determination to strive toward your dreams. Janice shares with the guys how she managed to navigate her way through a tumultuous period in her 20s and still tackle her goals to land her dream job.
Plans don't always pan out, so what then?
Janice talks about how she planned to elevate her career game by continuing on with grad school. Well, turned out that it was too expensive to justify. When plans don't work out, sometimes we need to get creative. Combining skill with education doesn't always have to cost a fortune. Janice shares how she got creative and still got the degree she sought.
Cultural influence is a necessary part of embracing your heritage
Janice shares how she learned to embrace her culture through the spoken word. Through this she hopes to help influence others to learn about and embrace their culture. Her role in the community can be felt in a much broader way. Janice helps give back to others by simply sharing her knowledge and her stories.
