In this episode, I explore the tension between purpose and career. For years, I believed that success meant turning my passion into my paycheck, but over time, I found this approach more limiting than liberating.
I’m breaking down why the “do what you love” narrative can set us up for frustration, and how I’ve shifted my focus toward creating a life where purpose and career don’t have to be the same thing.
We’ll cover:
- The risks of tying your purpose to your career
- Why finding fulfillment outside of work is essential
- The concept of “authentic money” that aligns with your values
- The journey to embrace a more holistic approach to success
This is an honest conversation about letting go of unrealistic expectations and finding a balance between purpose, career, and personal growth.
