It’s never just about the work—it’s about how you feel when you wake up each morning.
When you love what you do, it stops being a job. It becomes passion and purpose, moving together in a rhythm that feels almost magical.
After 32 years of working—as both an individual contributor and a people manager—I’ve seen the struggle firsthand. The mornings when getting out of bed feels like a battle. Every bone aches, not from exertion, but from resistance. Resistance to the work that doesn’t inspire, the people who drain rather than uplift, and the pressures that feel more like burdens than challenges.
I’ve seen people wish for just a few more minutes in bed, a little more sleep, a way to escape the office, the meetings, the monotony.
But I’ve also seen the transformation.
I’ve seen those same people arrive earlier than anyone else, energized and excited. They found work that lit them up. They stayed late—not because they had to, but because they wanted to. Weekends blurred into weekdays, not out of obligation, but out of joy.
That’s the power of discovering what you’re meant to do.
Let’s not wait for our children to stumble upon it by chance. Let’s help them uncover their passions early. Don’t set them on a path that leads to a life of “just getting by.”
Help them find the spark that turns work into meaning. Connect with us to discover your child’s innate potential—and help them build a life they’ll love waking up to.
