What if college isn’t the only path to success — or even the best one for you?

In this episode of The Sparky Life Podcast, we’re flipping the script on career planning and breaking down how you can launch a high-paying, hands-on career in the skilled trades — no degree or experience required.

You’ll learn:

  • How to get started in the trades as early as high school
  • The exact steps to become an electrician (including programs as short as 12 weeks)
  • Why electricians are in massive demand — with 75,000 job openings per year
  • The difference in pay between union and non-union paths (hint: both are solid, but one averages over $93,000)
  • How to build real skills, earn while you learn, and even start your own company

Whether you’re a student, a parent, or someone looking for a career reset, this episode will show you that working with your hands can build more than just buildings — it can build your future.
