Send us Fan MailFeeling productive but oddly empty? We sit down with impact investor and author Florian Cambridge to unpack why the real risk isn’t AI replacing humans it’s work losing its meaning. Florian shares how he broke free from the golden handcuffs at 33, traded status for service, and built a practical, seven-step method to help you identify your vocation and make it your profession. The result: a clear path to align purpose, leadership, and AI so your career creates value for people and planet without sacrificing pay.Together we explore how purpose turns technology into leverage, not pressure; why organizations that ignore meaning breed burnout; and how to rally teams around a simple, credible theory of change. Florian walks through a vivid MBA example where finance skills meet a climate calling, showing how AI lowers the threshold to innovate while mission provides direction. We also examine alignment at three levels—self, business, and capital so decisions about careers, strategy, and investments all pull toward the world you want to build.You’ll leave with a sharper definition of success, practical prompts to cut the noise and choose agency, and concrete ways to use AI for research, modeling, and prototyping while staying anchored in values. If you’ve wondered whether your skills still matter as machines get smarter, this conversation reframes the question: what problem do you care enough to solve, and how will you use every tool available to solve it?Find Florian’s resources and his book at on-vocation.com, and watch for the upcoming app that gamifies the seven steps for modern learners.
