Episode 16: Building Compassion Into Your Career

When work and passion collide, you find yourself in heart-centered work. And that’s the best kind of work to do. Amy and Mark reflect on our conversation with Jenn Smith about creating connection between the work you do and your passions to create a happier, healthier career. Some key points we discuss include: - Finding what your passionate about based on what brings you energy in your work. - How simple changes to your work can bring alignment; it doesn’t always involve changing jobs or changing careers. - The importance of getting everything out of your heart before you die. Amy and Mark share their perspectives of why this is so important to everyone who works today. And you can make the shifts to align passion with your work. Jenn Smith believes career success doesn't have to be at the expense of a radiantly happy + healthy lifestyle.
