These 5 myths might be hindering your dream job

Can you do me a quick favor as you read this?

It’s simple and will take less than 2 seconds.

Think about a myth that once stopped you from chasing your dreams or a goal you deeply wanted to achieve.

I’ll go first:

Here’s one: Only men succeed in the tech industry.

Sounds familiar? Well, that’s far from the truth.

Why? Because I broke into this male-dominated industry, excelled, and have the awards and results to show for it.

Now, I’m sure some similar thoughts are running through your mind...

The misconceptions that buried your dreams so deeply that they almost suffocated.

But here’s the good news:

I’m here to help free those dreams and nurture them into something remarkable.

Let’s talk about 5 common myths that might be holding you back from landing your dream tech job:

#1 Myth: You Need a Computer Science or Tech Background
This is one of the biggest lies out there. While traditional education has taught us that you need a degree to succeed, the truth is, certifications often outweigh degrees in the tech world.

You can build a thriving tech career without a formal tech background... all you need is the right knowledge and skills.

#2 Myth: You Have to Start Young
Here’s another falsehood: that tech is a young person’s game.

Age is just a number in this industry. I’ve mentored students in their 30s, 40s, and even 50s, who have gone on to land incredible roles with dedication and consistent effort.

#3 Myth: You Need to Be a Math Genius
While some fields like data science require mathematical skills (which are learnable!), many tech roles like web development, design, or project management rely more on creativity, problem-solving, and strong communication skills than advanced math.

#4 Myth: The Industry Is Saturated
This couldn’t be further from the truth.

The tech industry is constantly evolving, and new job roles open up every day.

The key to standing out is becoming exceptional at what you do—and that’s exactly what I help my students achieve.

#5 Myth: Tech Jobs Are All About Sitting at a Desk
Not at all!

Many tech roles are dynamic, requiring creativity, collaboration, and innovative problem-solving.

Plus, flexible and remote work opportunities add variety and balance to your career.

I know these myths can feel like unbreakable rocks standing in your way. 

But my goal is to shatter those rocks and help you make the daring move to change your life.

Make the smart move today!

Enjoy your day
