Professional fulfillment often presents several winding paths, and carving out a career that speaks to your soul can prove challenging for even the most talented. So, in this week’s episode of Self-Improvement Atlas: The Personal Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella is joined by career coach Utkarsh Narang to explore the art of aligning passion with profession.

Over his 16 years in employment, Utkarsh has gone from being a physiotherapist, to filming and editing educational content, to scaling a startup. His multi-career journey, coupled with a fervor for understanding human behavior, propelled him to start assisting and coaching individuals and teams with their own career journey. Ever since, Utkarsh has used the skills he’s acquired from previous positions to support his career coaching passion.

In this episode, Utkarsh shares his personal definition of a purposeful career, emphasizing that meaningful work will feel more rewarding, and less like a chore. He then offers suggestions on how to explore potential career paths that align with personal interests and skills, as well as advice on navigating career transitions, especially when switching industries.

Together, Marie and Utkarsh discuss the process of seeking a mentor, and how vital it can be for career development. To add, he generously shares his clients’ and his own experiences.

So, whether you’re a recent graduate seeking your first foothold in the industry, or a seasoned professional contemplating a little pivot, this episode just might give you the clarity that you need.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
