Everyone who wears glasses has worked with an optician, but what is an optician?
The best way the job of an optician was described to me was, “An optician is to an eye doctor, what a pharmacist is to a doctor,” but the job gets even more interesting when you realize it's a crossover between health science and math, but also fashion. Here is my interview with Optician and owner of Eye Candy Optical, Foti Siomos.

What exactly is an Osteopath??
Osteopaths are such an interesting and underrated profession. I still have a hard time fully explaining what an osteopath does so I will let my guest explain it better. Here is my interview with the Osteopathic Manual Practitioner, Katharine McLarty.

Imagine walking into a facility and being surrounded by over 2000 snakes and other reptiles, because that’s what I had to do for this interview.
I feel like you have to be a little crazy to have this job and work with this many reptiles as well. Today’s guest truly inspired me with his career journey. The diversity of careers he has explored, all the trials life has thrown his way and yet he still stands today pursuing what he love...
Welcome to Steven's Office Hours!
Allow me to tell you the story of my career journey and how I started the Help Wanted Podcast.

When we are young, we are taught to run away from fire or danger, but today's guest runs into it. He also taught me a lot about how to take care of yourself, no matter your career or what life throws your way. Here is my interview with Fire Fighter, Paul Butler.

I decided to give real estate another try, and speaking with Alex NOLIS, he taught me about his approach to his career and his life, which is not what you would expect from a Real Estate Agent. If I could use two words to describe his approach, it would be Humble & Kind. Here is my interview with Real Estate Agent Alex Nolis.

Today's guest is full of inspiring one-liners. One of my favourites was, “In sales it’s never no (spelled NO), it’s always known (spelt KNOW) as in we need to know more.” Knowing this opened my eyes to flip a negative situation and strive for greater things. Here is my interview with the Vice President of Advertising, Sales and Management for the TLN media group, Mario Masellis.

During and after this interview, I made a promise to my guest that I was going to follow in his footsteps in his honour. This podcaster never edits any of his interviews to allow the audience to be a part of this real and un-edited conversation.
Disclaimer: I did make one cut in the audio because we were rudely interrupted by a fire alarm, so I cut part of that out. While listening, double-check to make sure the alarm is comin...

Today's guest, Mercedes Gaztambide, likes to throw spaghetti at the wall and hopes it sticks. It is not actual spaghetti, metaphorical spaghetti, but I will let her explain it some more. Here is my interview with the Co-Host of the show Street Cents, Mercedes Gaztambide.

If you are going to fail at least “Fail Forward,” something that today's guest, Anton Dzeko, says a lot, and it really resonated with me. It is such a positive way to spin what we deem to be our failures and how we can always learn from our failures but I will let him talk about it. Here is my interview with Real Estate Agent Anton Dzeko.

“Break your goals into bite-sized pieces” is a quote from this week's guest. I don't know about you all but I like to set big goals for myself and my life yet I always fall victim to overthinking and stressing over where I am at in my life with my goals. Interviewing Suzanne today, she reminded me how we need to break our life and goals into bite-size pieces so we don't overwhelm and stress ourselves so much. So, he...
“If you never ask, you will never receive.” What a simple yet obvious idea we all forget now and then. It's a lesson from today's guest that his father taught him, and now he shares it with us and much more. Here is my interview with the Grocery & Duty Free Manager in the Beverage Alcohol Industry, Ed Bajus.
