In this episode of Unlocking My Potential, we sit down with Kara Baldwin to explore her powerful and unconventional journey—from working long shifts as a CNA and pursuing nursing to becoming a mechanical engineer and now stepping into a new chapter as a high school STEM teacher.

Kara shares:

• Why she left nursing to pursue engineering
• Her experience at Florida Polytechnic University, including student government and robotics
• The reality of imposter syndrome and being a woman in STEM
• Working at a biotech startup focused on inclusive medical devices
• Her passion for teaching and inspiring the next generation of engineers

This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating change, searching for purpose, or just needing a reminder that your path doesn’t have to be linear to be powerful.
