Questioning our life’s purpose is something we all do at one point in our lives. We often associate it with a job or role, but what if it’s so much more than that? Last week we spoke about how navigating change and life transitions often leaves us feeling disoriented and anxious about the future. Perhaps a large part of this anxiety comes from the fact that we’re either moving away from what we thought our life’s purpose was, and now we’re faced with figuring it all out again.

In today's episode, we’re continuing our conversation about life’s transitions and taking a look at the personal journey that comes with navigating a major career shift. Using my transition from a college president as an example, I share how I embraced this change through self-reflection and self knowledge.
