Career Exploration
In this episode, herdacious host Lorelei chats with Lynn Chang about exploring various career paths. During her tenure as a college career coach, Dr. Lynn guided students toward balanced and satisfying career choices. However, career exploration is not exclusive to the youth of pre-paid meal plans; it’s a common phenomenon to all working professionals. From exploring the multi-faceted career playground to prioritizing mind over matter, Dr. Lynn walks us through the process of determining our wants, our talents, and our curiosities which will ultimately aid us in discovering our careers of choice. So let's have a go at the playground of life; perhaps along the way we’ll learn where we can also make a difference!
Host: Lorelei Gonzalez
Co-host: Lynn Chang, PhD
Dr. Lynn Chang is the founder of CAREER ZEN and author of The 10 Day Career Cleanse. With a doctorate in Counseling Psychology, Dr. Lynn infuses yoga and Buddhist spiritual principles into her career guidance. This East-meets-West approach allows her to teach people how to achieve meaningful work, purposeful living, and work/life balance. With a focus on calming the mind and listening to your heart, Dr Lynn believes you already have the answers you seek within you.
