TALKING STAGE

You know that feeling when everyone around you is "getting into tech"-and you're stuck at the starting line, paralyzed by confusion?
Which bootcamp should you choose? Data analytics or software development? Should you spend top dollars on that course everyone's talking about? What if you pick wrong?
Here's the truth nobody tells you: Most people fail at tech transitions because they skip the talking stage.
They rush into expensive bootcamps before understanding what tech actually requires. They commit to coding before discovering they hate it. They waste money, time, and confidence on paths that were never right for them.
There's a better way.
The Talking Stage Framework
In this game-changing playbook, Tayo Winkunle-who transitioned from banking to fintech product management at Interswitch-reveals how to explore tech careers like you'd explore a relationship: thoughtfully, strategically, and without losing yourself in the process.
No more guessing. No more expensive mistakes. Just clarity.
