About this listen
An inspiring, wise and highly practical method for discovering your true self and identifying the fulfilling career just for you.
No matter where we are in our lives, be it atop the heights of achievement or just setting out on our journey, we’ve all had that moment where we’ve wondered, “What is my purpose? What was I born to do?” The answer can feel just within our grasp, or as far off as the horizon. How in the world do we get there?
Enter Becoming You, a joyful, deeply researched, and immediately applicable step-by-step guidebook to help you answer that very question. Based on the phenomenally popular NYU class by the same name, and used by thousands of people around the world, Becoming You is an empathic yet absolutely zero-BS method designed to help you understand where you want to go and what you want to do in today’s ever-changing world.
Professor Suzy Welch, a respected expert in careers, decision-making, and identity formation, is the Director of NYU Stern’s Initiative on Purpose and Flourishing. A graduate of Harvard and Harvard Business School, and a former columnist for O: The Oprah Magazine, she has consulted for some of America’s largest companies, is a frequent commentator for the Wall Street Journal, and a regular guest on the Today Show and CNBC. Her previous three books have been New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestsellers, and her fast-growing, authentic, and often hilarious "Becoming You" podcast has fans worldwide.
But more than anything, Professor Welch is a teacher and agent of transformation. After a life filled with wide and varied experiences, from crime reporter to tech entrepreneur, her own purpose is helping others find theirs. She created Becoming You out of fifteen years of researching and testing with the heartfelt goal of helping people discover a way forward in a complex world. To that end, Becoming You guides readers through the process of excavating their truest values, identifying their outstanding aptitudes, and finally, pinpointing their economically viable interests, that is, the kind of work that calls them emotionally and intellectually, and also makes sense financially. Ultimately, Becoming You, at turns warm, witty, pragmatic, and filled with tough-love, is your guide to discovering the life you were meant to live.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

To convey her conclusions, she turned to the aphorism—the ancient literary discipline that demands that a writer convey a large truth in a few words.

We all know what it’s like to experience the disappointments and sorrows of life. Unexpected circumstances like layoffs, divorce, illness, and death can leave us hurting and isolated. Add to that the unending anxiety we feel at the state of the world—political strife and global upheavals—and we end up with a recipe for . . . joy? Yes, says journalist Steven Petrow, who has lived through all of those things, and arrived at a surprising conclusion: Joy is always present—in our everyday routines, in ties to those we care about, even in our grief.

Story
Up to 40% of people consider themselves shy. You might say you're introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. Maybe you're usually confident but have recently moved or started a new job, only to feel isolated and unsure. If you get nervous in social situations - meeting your partner's friends, public speaking, standing awkwardly in the elevator with your boss - you've probably been told, "Just be yourself!" But that's easier said than done - especially if you're prone to social anxiety.

We all spend a lot of energy trying to get people to listen to us, and despite our best efforts, we often fail. But what if the secret to influencing others was to demonstrate acceptance? Enter validation—communication where one accepts and sees the validity in another person’s experience. Research on validation shows that it has profound effects, from improving relationships and de-escalating conflicts to increasing one’s influence and self-compassion.

Filled with practical advice, helpful exercises, and inspiring real-world examples, The Power of Mattering equips leaders at all levels with the tools they need to revitalize their teams—and entire organizations—by showing people that they matter.

Story
Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc.

Story
How to measure a life? After a career of service, retired four-star general Stanley McChrystal had much to contemplate. He pondered his successes and failures, his beliefs and aspirations, and asked himself, Who am I, really? And more importantly, who have I become? When I die, how will I be measured? In the end, McChrystal came to a conclusion as simple as it was profound: the reality of who we are cannot be recorded in dates or accomplishments. It is found in our character—the most accurate, and last full measure, of who we choose to be.

Story
They were crop dusters and debutantes, college girls and performers in flying circuses—all of them trained as pilots. Because they were women, they were denied the opportunity to fly for their country when the United States entered the Second World War. But Great Britain, desperately fighting for survival, would let anyone—even Americans, even women—transport warplanes. Thus, twenty-five daring young aviators bolted for England in 1942, becoming the first American women to command military aircraft.
