Finding Purpose: How to give your work meaning (w/ the New York Times Jodi Kantor) | from Fixable
About this episode
Jodi Kantor discusses how to find meaning in work and offers practical strategies for a purposeful career.
In uncertain times, purposeful work can feel impractical and out of reach. But award-winning investigative reporter Jodi Kantor argues that meaning is both essential and available to all of us. Anne and Frances dive into the lessons from Jodi’s latest book, “How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work,” and explore practical strategies for anyone looking to chart a more purposeful career. The three also discuss two key principles for finding work that matters and challenge the idea that economic stability and purpose are mutually exclusive. Hosted on Acast.
