Folge vom 22.06.2026Why you should stop chasing your “dream job” (w/ Emily the Recruiter) | from FixableDoes your “dream job” really exist? You may know Emily Durham as Emily the Recruiter on social media, where she shares practical, refreshingly honest career advice and coaches people through the biggest professional decisions of their lives. Emily doesn’t believe in the idea of a dream job. In this episode, she joins Anne to make the case for the “awake job” that actively fits into your purpose, lifestyle, and financial needs. Emily reflects on how her own purpose has evolved over time, and answers questions from listeners about how to gracefully quit a job, find a path forward when you feel stuck, and communicate your values to a potential employer.Find more episodes from a special series on finding more purpose at work only on Fixable: https://link.mgln.ai/SVuDJo Hosted on Acast.
