My Mission to Be Mission-Driven: How to Turn Passion into Impact

My Mission to Be Mission-Driven: How to Turn Passion into Impact

About this session

I've always said that life's too short not to make an impact...and I hope that's impactful for somebody! I've been very lucky in having some exciting opportunities throughout my career, but the opportunity that inspired me the most was the one I almost didn't have the courage to take. I've learned that not every path is a straight line, and it's never too late to pivot.

In this chat, I want you to walk away with:

  • An understanding that you're always building your skillset
  • An acceptance that not all your passions need to be a part of your career for you to be passionate about your career
  • A better appreciation for what impact means to you
  • How to think about your transferable skills in relation to your passions
