Sam and Sophie open with that uncomfortable question, because Ken Coleman says most of us put more thought into a week off than into our life's work. They walk through Coleman's inside-out framework: start with a talent audit to find what you do effortlessly, then identify your passion by noticing what bothers you, and finally combine them into a mission using the formula talent plus passion equals mission. The pair also covers the relationship-based job search approach and how to navigate the 'messy middle' of career change. If you've been drifting through your career or feeling stuck in a role that doesn't fit, this episode gives you a clear, actionable system to find your sweet spot. The takeaway: confusion is the enemy of progress, and clarity is a decision you can make today. Get Clear Career Assessment by Ken Coleman.
