How many times have we heard that we need to find and follow our passion?

What if that wasn’t true?

Today, I’m talking with Terri Trespicio about why you shouldn’t chase after having a passion, the question you need to ask yourself instead, and making intentional choices so you can live your life and career on your own terms.
