From Cert Skeptic to Certified Beast: How I went from eye-rolling at Salesforce certifications to earning 12 in under 2 years.

For years, I thought certs were just LinkedIn fluff. Then Salesforce bought Slack, and I realized: maybe this cloud thing wasn’t going away. Fast-forward 24 months—I’ve got 12 certifications, a new career, and a lot to say about what changed.

This guide is part story, part strategy, and all real talk. If you're wondering whether certs are worth it—or just how to actually start—this is your shortcut.

What’s Inside:

• My full certification timeline (Admin to Architect)
• The mindset shift that changed everything
• What I’d do differently—and what I’d double down on
• A permission slip to not be perfect before you begin

Perfect For:
Aspiring admins, career changers, cert skeptics, and anyone who's ever asked, “Where do I even start?”
