Learning As You Go w/ Josh Tickenoff (Part 3)

Learning As You Go w/ Josh Tickenoff (Part 3)

In this last part (finally!) my dad talks about how a fourth-grade aptitude test first pointed him toward architecture, even though he didn’t fully understand it then. After an accident affected his ability to draw, he shifted from art to architecture and started studying at a community college. Instead of following a traditional degree path, he jumped straight into work and learned on the job, quickly advancing. He reflects on how mentors shaped his career and how the field has changed with technology. We also talk about college—he sees value in it, but says real-world experience and a love for learning matter just as much.

Learning As You Go w/ Josh Tickenoff (Part 2)

In part two, my dad talks about how architecture interested him from a young age, but after an accident affected his ability to draw, he shifted focus and started working right after community college instead of pursuing a traditional degree. He learned a lot on the job from mentors and quickly took on big responsibilities. He reflects on how technology has changed architecture over time, making it more automated. We also talk about college and how he believes it’s valuable but not necessary for everyone, and that following your passion is what matters.

Learning As You Go w/ Josh Tickenoff (Part 1)

In this episode, I have a candid and fun conversation about faith and family with my dad. We dive into how his experiences growing up shaped his beliefs and how those beliefs influenced me. It’s a relaxed, honest chat where we laugh and reflect on the ways faith has evolved between our generations. It’s really about understanding him better and exploring what faith means to both of us.

Why Does Looking Back Matter?

In this episode of Curiously Confused, I talk about losing a past recording and how it brought back memories of how much I loved documenting life as a kid through videos, journals, and little creative moments. I’ve always wanted to hold onto the things that matter. But over time, I started using temporary fixes like control and routines to try to feel okay. They helped for a bit, but never lasted. Now, I’m learning to let go of those things and lean more on Jesus. He’s not a quick fix; He’s steady, constant, and the path I want to stay.

Struggling to Saved w/ Paola

In this episode of Curiously Confused, I talk with my friend Paola (Pow Pow) about her powerful story of transformation. She shares how losing her dad at a young age and growing up in a broken home led her down a path of addiction, deep hurt, and identity struggles. But everything began to change when she encountered Jesus through Teen Challenge. Paola opens up about what it looked like to surrender, how she’s learned to trust God even when anxiety creeps in, and the freedom she’s found in Christ. Her testimony is raw, emotional, and so full of hope.
