Torn Between Passions? Embrace Your Many Career Identities - with Dr Sarabeth Berk


Listen Later

Navigating career and purpose is an ongoing journey, not a destination. Many of us feel pulled between passion and practicality - it's natural to wonder how to stay true to yourself while also paying the bills.

My conversation with Dr. Sarabeth touched on these challenges. She reminded us that we all have multiple talents worth exploring. By acknowledging our diverse interests and experiences, new opportunities can emerge.

It takes courage to embrace change and experimentation. But seeing our careers as dynamic, rather than fixed, allows room for growth into our best selves. Dr. Sarabeth encouraged embracing uncertainty through curiosity - an open mind leads to new discoveries.

Money worries can feel restrictive, but reframing our beliefs frees us. Aligning our work with core values like purpose and fulfillment is more important than any title. And small steps toward our passions, taken with patience, can pave the way.

I hope you'll reflect on nurturing the diverse talents within you. Have the courage to chart your own path through exploration and community.
