What Color Is Your North Star? Or, What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

What do you want to be when you grow up? The good news is that there isn’t necessarily just one right answer. In this episode, we talk about jobs vs careers vs vocations, identifying your special gifts, and listening for the voice of vocation by asking yourself “What makes you happy? Really, really happy?”
