Today’s episode is all about Gatekeeping in IT — the folks who hold on to knowledge, block access to tools, and don’t want to see you grow… because deep down, they’re afraid you’ll pass them up.
🎙 I break down:
• Real examples of what IT gatekeeping looks like
• Why people gatekeep (fear, ego, insecurity)
• And most importantly, how to break through it — with strategy and confidence
💡 One thing I’ve learned? Sometimes the thing they try to block you from is the very thing that’s gonna help you stand out.
