In Pursuit of Extending His Family's Legacy in Education: Meet Sean Whitten
Raised in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Sean currently works as Director of Enrollment Analytics for Queens University of Charlotte in Charlotte, NC. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in History from St. Ambrose University in Iowa and a Master of Arts in Higher Education from Ashford University.
Sean's career journey was fueled with an unrelenting ambition to do the heart work and honor his family's legacy as educators.
Unfortunately, he oftentimes pursued this journey at the expense of his personal identity and those around him. After suffering from multiple mental health challenges, he sought help, refocused his priorities and purpose. All of this has helped him cultivate a teachable strategy to inspire anyone to become enthusiastic about using their unique gifts to shape what is needed to move forward without losing themselves.
In this episode, Sean shares:
- How he decided where to attend college
- What attracted him to history as a college major
- How an internship encouraged him to pursue a career working in museums only for his graduate program to convince him otherwise (essentially his lack of fulfillment with the process of pursuing his desired career field led him to change careers altogether)
- The difference between having a job vs a career
- How he discovered his passion for working in college admissions
- Important differences in his career journey prior to achieving his goals compared to the journey afterward
Also mentioned in this episode:
- Episode 99: Pursuing a Career Based on Your Interests vs. Pay
- Episode 100: Increasing Your Income by Creating a Portfolio of Work
- Episode 95: Plan for the Future, But Also Live Fully Now
