What if you end up achieving a big dream, but discover that it's someone else's dream, not your own?  What do you do then?   This week, we are joined by Executive Coach Jennifer Chow Bevan.  Jenn and Michael talk about how putting your head down and working hard isn't always the best strategy for career happiness, and how true insight is difficult but can come over time.  We talk about imposter syndrome, pivotal feedback moments that shake up our thinking, the pluses and minuses of the immigrant experience as it relates to careers, why "presence" is a loaded word, and what to do when we discover that the behaviors that got us here aren't necessarily going to get us there.  A very personal, wide-ranging and fun conversation.
