Welcome to the ATL Career Journey podcast! I'm your Atlanta-based host Paul Varnedoe and created this podcast to help mentor and share experiences and career pivots of successful people. Whether you are in high school, college, or have started your career, this podcast can help get you inspired with your career journey.
What does it look like when life knocks you off course — and you keep going anyway? In this episode, Paul sits down with Jess Mints, a Georgia Tech grad, Navy veteran, and cancer survivor whose journey is anything but straight. From pivoting majors to military service to rebuilding after personal setbacks, Jess shares how faith, resilience, and the right people in your corner can redirect any detour into a destination. This one hits different. #ATLCareerJourney #ResilientByDesign #Faith...
