From Wall Street Banker to Mongolian News Anchor

from Life, Deconstructed

Patricia Sexton spent a decade in banking, from Wall Street to Singapore to Tokyo, racking up a roster of major clients. 6:30am on the trading floor, making the kind of money to support the sort of New York lifestyle you see in sitcoms. But her path to fulfillment meant saying no to a coveted job at Goldman Sachs, leaving it all behind, and - wait for it - interning at a TV news station in Mongolia. She's since anchored a talk show on pursuing passions for Sinovision, authored the book "Live from Mongolia," and launched an incredible project called The Happiness Idea. Her path has been filled with surprising moments and emotional stories, from a pivotal week alone in Tibet, to turning down a massive check from her finance boss, and a party in Hong Kong that changed the direction of her life.
