Line of Work
by Sarah Ohlson
Line of Work is a show about people who (really) like their jobs. Each episode, I'll interview an expert from a different industry. Together, we deep dive into their professional journey, the decisions behind its transitions, and what gets them excited to go to work every single day. The world (and the job market) has turned upside down this year. If you’re like me, you might be feeling a little lost. I started this show to learn from people who've found longevity and satisfaction in their careers - and explore just how many paths there are to finding fulfillment in what you do for a living.
