Should your passion be your profession?

We've all wondered - is it really possible to make a living doing what you love? On this episode of the Wise and Shine podcast, we're tackling this tricky topic of passion and practicality in the professional world.

Our panel of career experts have walked varied paths - from policymaker to corporate consultant to content creator. Hear their thoughtful perspectives on finding fulfillment both in and outside the 9-to-5.

Did following their dreams lead to success or burnout for our guests? One shares how an unexpected detour landed them in a field they've come to love. Another keeps work and play strictly separated - but is that the healthiest approach?

You'll also get an inside look at what perseverance through challenges looks like from the frontlines of public service.

So if you've ever thought of turning your hobby into a high-paying gig, or just want insight on blending purpose with a paycheck, tune in to listen to our candid conversation on making passion projects pay off. This is one episode that will have you reexamining your relationship with work.
