These episodes give you the inside scoop, so you can identify your ideal career and have the confidence to take the next step.

Nona Yehia - Vertical Harvest’s Co-Founder & CEO
In this episode, we sit down with Nona Yehia, the visionary architect behind Vertical Harvest—a three-story hydroponic greenhouse built to grow food and opportunity in the unlikeliest of places: Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Nona shares how she turned a bold idea into a blueprint for inclusive, sustainable business—where half the workforce is made up of people with disabilities, and every role is designed around each employee’s unique strengths. You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes story of building a farm in a ski town, rethinking what meaningful employment looks like, and challenging the systems that leave too many people out.
