"Don't you miss TV?"

I get this question often. For the first 15 years of my adult life, being a journalist was all I wanted. I got of bed somewhere between 2:30am and 3:45 am everyday to do morning TV. I had a fire in my belly for it. Passion.

In 2012, I launched a networking platform on the side. 8 women came. Then 30. Then 300. They were all coming to share that they were doing something outside of the Indian parent approved "Doctor, lawyer, engineer" professions.

In between my hourly updates on the markets, I began spending all my time working on events for my platform. I understood my purpose. A career on TV was no longer it.

Our speaker for this podcast is Laura Gassner Otting. She wrote a book called "LIMITLESS." In our conversation, we are going to talk about how YOU can find and live a life of purpose.

Calling. 

• It's the pull to do something larger than yourself. 
• What fuels you?
• Why do you do the work that you do?

Connection.

• What would happen if you didn't show up to work today?
• How much of your work is related to your goals? 

Contribution

• How the work you do gives you the lifestyle you want, making you 'limitless'
• How do you want your work to contribute to the life you want to live?
• Would you be okay making less money if the work you did was aligned with your values?

Control

• Do you feel that your opinion matters at work
• Do you know what you do well?
• Do you have influence over how many hours you work or how much you earn?

Join me in conversation with Laura Gassner Otting. Learn how you can break free of the structure and limits that stifle you so that you can reach your full potential and calling.
