If you’re a college or high-school student questioning your major, rethinking your career goals, or just wondering if passion really pays off — this episode will change how you think about “success.”
🎙️ You’ll Learn:▪️ How to pivot your career when your plan no longer fits▪️ The truth about working in professional sports▪️ What it takes to lead (and last) in a male-dominated field▪️ Why the best careers start with curiosity, not certainty
