The world of work has changed quite a bit in the last few years. Today, more people are not just looking for a paycheck or promotion, they are looking for meaning in what they do. Another big change is that many workers today have more than one job. People relate to their work and their employer differently than they used to. Bruce Feiler has been watching and researching these changing trends and joins me to discuss what these changes mean and what opportunities they create for all of us. Bruce is the author of six consecutive New York Times bestsellers including ⁠⁠The Search: Finding Meaningful Work in a Post-Career World (https://amzn.to/3OKgwUI)⁠⁠

She is a medical anthropologist, and associate professor of science and technology. She is also author of the book ⁠⁠Allergic: Our Irritated Bodies in a Changing World (https://amzn.to/43d9uwb)⁠⁠
