What Do I Want To Be When I Grow Up?

45 Left or Right Podcast is hosted by Darisse Smith, a former Army helicopter pilot, freelance journalist, and middle aged Mom, wife and general person. On this episode, Darisse discusses her neverending search to find a lifelong career, from where it began in college, and after feeling purposeless after transitioning out of the Army. Darisse tells the story of pursing jobs in medical Sales, Customer Service, Stand Up Comedy, a Stay at Home Mom, and finally, Journalism. Once we reach our mid 30s, 40s and 50s, we begin to evaluate our life's purpose, and can begin to scrutinize our choice of career, while also realizing we need to make a living to support ourselves and our families. Should we expect to find a career that fulfills a passion and our financial goals? Are these expectations realistic? Can we be happy in "just" having a job, and not one that feeds a personal passion?#middleage #newpodcast #career #lifespassion #careerstruggles Hosted on Acast.
