Why “Follow Your Passion” Fails and What Actually Leads to Fulfillment

Описание: Everyone says to follow you passion, but what if you’re passionate about cupcakes and walking? It’s only half of the equation to a fulfilling career and life so we need to discuss the other half.

This episode of Embrace the Squiggle explore the passion equation with Paul Comfort who is a longtime transportation leader and media creator. We discuss his upcoming book ‘Find Your X Factor’ which helps high performers escape impressive BUT draining careers.

Comfort shares a 30+ year path that began after “meeting a guy,” spanning public and private sector transit leadership, county CEO roles in Maryland, and retiring as CEO of Baltimore’s MTA before focusing on communication through his Transit Unplugged podcast (nearing 400 episodes in!).
