from Off The Comma · host Paul Briley

In this episode, we talk to Alice Yeh. She describes herself as values-oriented and adventurous, adaptable and resilient. Alice lives in the United States. Alice tells us about sitting on a comma with the direction of her career. After going to top schools and following the “path of success” to work at large, important companies, Alice found her experience lacking. Her sense that something was missing for her affected her career trajectory and left her feeling alone and stuck.
