Über diesen Titel

 Eight weeks into Beyond the Megawatt, Mara and Val pause to reflect on what they've learned about starting a podcast, challenging industry norms, and amplifying voices that typically don't get heard. This honest conversation reveals the real motivations behind their platform and why non-traditional career paths might be exactly what the data center industry needs. Key Insights: • The shame of non-traditional paths - Why many successful professionals hide their unconventional routes into infrastructure and construction • Breaking conference barriers - How arbitrary rules keep fresh voices off industry panels and what needs to change • Strategic networking - Practical tips for making genuine connections at industry events instead of collecting business cards • The power of preparation - Why women-focused networking events create stronger industry participation, not separation • Redefining success metrics - Moving beyond traditional credentials to recognize diverse forms of expertise and intelligence • Taking the show on the road - Upcoming live appearances and the mission to interview voices behind the scenes This episode challenges listeners to examine their own assumptions about who belongs in mission-critical industries and whose perspectives deserve platforms. Mara and Val demonstrate that the most powerful conversations happen when you stop trying to be perfect and start being honest about the real challenges facing infrastructure professionals. What's Next: Look for Beyond the Megawatt at upcoming industry events including WIMCO Tech Summit, YADA, Data Center World Power, and DCAC/Data Cloud, where they'll be conducting live interviews with the people actually building our digital infrastructure.
