How do we harness that excitement for ourselves when we find work to be overwhelming, monotonous, or dissatisfying and we’re ready for change? That’s the question we’re looking to answer as we talk with guests who have turned their passion into meaningful work! Productive Passions - hosted by Christy Tagye - takes us on a journey with guests who have dared to reshape their lives and follow their dreams. In each episode, we have candid conversations with people who have embraced change jumping headfirst into uncertainty and following their passions. We’ll explore their stories, experiences, sources of support, and what fuels their motivation to persevere when things aren’t sunshine and rainbows. Hear from experts who provide valuable advice, and resources for actionable steps to begin your transformative journey. New episodes drop on the second Friday of each month.
