We're so excited to share this ep with you! It's little different to our usual podcasts, focusing on the incredible journey of Nico Murillo. 📺 Full episode here: https://lnkd.in/d4n-WT57 Nico’s story has captured the hearts of so many (including 20K+ YouTube subscribers). Like many of his colleagues, he too was laid off by Tesla this year. That's despite the dedication he displayed in his role as Production Supervisor at the EV company. To avoid the 90-minute commute... Nico had even been sleeping in his car and showering at the factory! Determined to turn this lifechanging experience into a positive, Nico now finds himself on a journey for financial independence. The story itself is compelling. But it’s his mindset and perspective which is truly gripping. Hear from Nico on his career and medical story, his anxieties and his unorthodox, yet exciting plans ahead! Nico is the definition of someone taking charge of their life. Not allowing factors out of his control to affect his overall mission. #TakeCharge

🔋⚡🔋 Take Charge On Tour was in full force last month 🔋⚡🔋 We had the incredible opportunity to visit Proterra, where they’re doing some truly groundbreaking work in battery module and pack manufacturing for medium to heavy-duty applications. And let me tell you – the conversations we had with the team were nothing short of inspiring! 🔋 Cutting-Edge Technology: We explored the technological advancements driving Proterra’s products, and how they are leading the charge in sustainable energy solutions. 🎉 Culture & DE&I: What really stood out was their genuine commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We chatted about the incredible initiatives they’ve rolled out to ensure everyone feels welcome, valued, and ready to contribute their best. ✨ Why Work Here?: When I asked what makes Proterra a fantastic place to work, the answers were unanimous: it’s all about the people, the purpose, and the chance to make a real impact. If you’re looking for a place where your work truly matters, this is it. 💚🌍 Proterra Pride: A fit for those passionate about making a tangible impact on the world, after all the Latin for Proterra means “for the land”. Their focus on sustainability and innovation aligns with the values of many forward-thinking professionals in our industry. I walked away from these interviews not just impressed by their expertise but also by their genuine kindness and humility. It’s clear that Proterra is not just leading in the industry – they’re setting the standard for what a great workplace should look like. A special thank you Lisa Lillelund, Colleen O'Neill and Brennen Jones as well as the entire team for contributing ❤️ Tune in for more insights from these discussions! Great work Blaze Gardner!
