The Unplanned Path: Finding Passion in Teaching and CSS
In this episode I delve into my personal journey of becoming a teacher and the unexpected paths that led me to where I am today. From my love of CSS to the joys and challenges of teaching, I explore how both elements have shaped my career. I also talk a bit about the boring bits of what I do, and how some of the worst parts can be the best parts, as well as the importance of community support, and a bit of self-analysis about why I do what I do. Thank you for being a part of this journey!

Om General Musings with Kevin Powell
I have a newsletter where I usually start things off with pretty long general musings before I share the content I've created in the previous week, as well as any interesting articles I've stumbled across in the last week. Not everyone likes reading or having more emails in their inbox, though, so this podcast is an audio version of my newsletters. They aren't tutorials or technical explorations like my regular videos are, but instead tend to talk about a wide range of different topics, though they're generally at least somewhat related to front-end development in some way.
