When I was 18, I had a decision to make: go to college, or hit the road and help open offices across the country for a growing company. When I sat down with Tucker Carlson, he was curious about what my parents thought of me taking such an unconventional path.

I told USA TODAY what I’ve been saying for years: college is a path, but it’s not the only one. It’s time we stop treating the trades like a fallback and start seeing them for what they really are—legit pathways to comfort, peace, and freedom.

These days, it feels like we're all just reacting—to everything, all the time. But what if we paused, leaned in, and started problem-solving instead? The ability to adapt, improvise, and think your way through a challenge is becoming a lost art. It’s not taught in schools.

You don’t need to saddle your kids with college debt for them to live a life of success, purpose, and freedom. The trades are wide open. Supply is low, demand is high—and that’s a formula for opportunity. More and more women are stepping into these careers and thriving too!

Can you believe that over 77 million Americans work with their hands every day? Imagine if we pushed every one of those individuals down the same college-only path. No wonder it takes a year to get an outlet installed, and it costs you $1,500.
