Welcome to Season 2! In this episode, we sit down with Sarita Nair, Cabinet Secretary of the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions, to explore the twists and turns of career paths, the impact of mentorship, and the future of workforce development.

Sarita shares her journey—from studying African-American studies to working in international development, earning a law degree, and finding unexpected opportunities along the way. We also discuss the surprising (and sometimes hilarious) results of career aptitude tests, the evolving job landscape, and how quantum technology and aerospace are shaping the state's economy.

With candid reflections on embracing uncertainty, connecting the dots in hindsight, and the invaluable guidance of mentors, this episode is packed with wisdom for anyone navigating their professional journey.
