You got your degree, built your career, and checked all the boxes you're supposed to. So why does it feel like something's still missing? 🤔 That’s exactly what @Jake Kennington is here to help you with. 👇
Jake is a licensed PE and SE who achieved every professional achievement every engineer strives for…but still felt pulled toward something more. The tricky part?
He couldn't quite put his finger on what that "more" was — just like many engineers feel today.
You’ve achieved many things you were supposed to, but you’re still not living that life you actually want.
In this episode, Jake opens up about the wake-up call that changed his perspective about this, why being good at your job isn't always enough, and how you can (and should) make room for personal fulfillment without throwing your professional life out the window.
If you’ve ever found yourself asking the question, “Is this what my life turned out to be?,” this episode is for you. 👍
