How do you make a career change when you’re successful and have a great salary but you know it’s not your passion? If you’ve ever had a feeling that you’re not doing what you were called to do, then you’re not alone. 

Today’s guest is Marcel Baker. Now with over a decade of experience in education, you’ll hear about an epiphany moment that led him to leave his successful career in commercial lending to pursue designing equitable outcomes for underserved youth in our school systems. 

Met with naysayers along the way, you'll hear how The road wasn’t easy, but it was necessary. 

We discuss: 

  • His epiphany moment 
  • Why properly fun fire drills in schools matter 
  • How the Charter School he helped started shattered student enrollment goals despite naysayers 
  • Why it’s important to follow your passion 
  • The wake-up call he had in the middle of the career-changing process
