There are over 7000 languages spoken across the world today. The United States alone has between 350 and 430 languages spoken in its borders. Language connects us, allows us to express ideas and learn new knowledge.

“We, as a culture, have been outsourcing our body’s own intuition about food and movement to someone else.”

Nutrition is complicated and nuanced. Every year it seems like there’s a new diet, a new fad ‘guaranteed’ to help you lose weight. Every day we see ads telling us what we should look like, even if we haven’t looked like that for years.

Not all the skills necessary for a rewarding career can be found in a traditional classroom setting. Many come through hands-on work experience, especially skills found in the trades industry. Unfortunately, opportunities to learn those skills often don’t come everyday. 

Maybe you just graduated high school. Perhaps you are in college considering what career you want to pursue. Or you might be thinking about changing career paths later in life. Regardless of your situation, becoming an Emergency Medical Technician could be the career for you.
