In this episode of Techtonic Podcast, we sit down with Henrietta Kolb, a former music educator turned Salesforce professional, who is navigating an inspiring career transition. From not knowing what a terminal was to building her own Salesforce app from scratch, Henrietta shares her journey of self-learning, imposter syndrome, and balancing career aspirations with family life.

Key Takeaways:

• You don’t need a tech background to break into Salesforce. Henrietta’s journey proves that with curiosity, persistence, and the right resources, anyone can learn Salesforce, even from scratch.
• Learning to use technical tools can be overwhelming, but it’s possible. Henrietta went from not knowing what a terminal was to confidently using Visual Studio Code, GitHub, and Dev Hub to develop her own app.
• Imposter syndrome is real, but so is your ability to overcome it. When self-doubt crept in, Henrietta reminded herself of her goals and why she started, helping her push forward despite challenges.
• Being a mother and learning Salesforce requires intentional time management. Henrietta discovered that studying in the early morning, rather than at night, helped her retain information while still being present for her child.
