Ep 40- Why Your Job Doesn't Need to Be Your Purpose

Dela

If everyone around you seems to have found their "passion" at work - and you secretly feel like your job is just… fine, and you've started wondering if something is wrong with you - this episode is for you.


Jessica Zwaan is the VP of People Strategy & Operations at Leapsome, a two-time author, and an ex-COO who interviewed almost 200 people about what work actually does for us.
