Carving Your Career Path With Laura Gassner Otting

Do you ever look around at what everyone else is doing with their careers and feel a little less than in comparison? This week I’m sharing my conversation with Laura Gassner Otting, author, podcaster, and presidential appointee under Bill Clinton, to dig into how to get unstuck. She’s peeling back the veil on what it actually means to stop using other people’s definitions of success to determine our own. How do you match what you do to who you are? How do you determine what kind of career will make the most sense and be the most rewarding? If you're ready to break the mold and carve your unique career path, this episode is for you!
