Some hope for a mundane job that will allow them to fund side projects, and others long for a career they can call their vocation. Both routes can be equally fulfilling, but one thing is for sure: finding meaningful work isn’t always the smoothest of journeys. So, join us in an episode of Self-Improvement Atlas as host Marie Stella picks the brain of speaker and writer Rebecca Fraser- Thill to learn more about the psychology and design thinking required for a fulfilling career.
A seasoned leadership and career coach, Rebecca guides her clients through masterfully crafting pathways to more rewarding work, transcending mere job satisfaction. From coaching clients globally to shaping purpose-driven initiatives at renowned institutions like Bates College, she champions the ethos of meaningful engagement.
Rebecca starts by shedding light on design thinking and its role in shaping meaningful careers, offering useful advice for applying its principles to career planning. She then shares examples of clients who have managed to align passion with profession, as well as personal anecdotes from her own career journey. Together, Marie and Rebecca discuss ways to cope with potential challenges like work-life balance and burnout.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
