Embracing Uncertainty with Cesar Quezada
Podcast: The Way to College PodcastPublished On: Mon Aug 24 2026
Description: In my conversation with Cesar Quezada, we discussed his experience as a first-generation college student and his remarkable academic turnaround, mentorship, career pivots, leaving his comfort zone, serving students, and learning to navigate uncertainty.We also talk about something especially close to the mission of The Way to College: the power of sharing our stories.Cesar eventually began speaking publicly about his own experiences so educators could better understand and support students. He then encouraged his students to share their stories at professional conferences as well. For Cesar, representation matters because hearing people's experiences can change how others think and act.If you know a student or an adult whose plans aren't working out the way they expected, share this episode.
