Why You Should ‘Unfollow Your Passion’ with Terri Trespicio

May 10, 2022

In a society that is constantly telling us to 'live your passion' and 'follow your dreams,' there can be a lot of pressure to have it all figured out.  In this episode, we talk with Terri Trespicio, TED Talk speaker and author of  Unfollow Your Passion: How to Create a Life that Matters to You. Terri shares why you should not feel the pressure to find your 'passion' and how to focus, instead, on moving forward, trying new things, and how to make a plan vs. having a mapped-out plan of your life.

Because there’s what you do. And then, there’s what you really do. We’ve all got stuff to do, things to make, people to serve. But where we get stuck is when we think we’re doing one thing…when we’re really doing another. Stop waiting for inspiration, angels, heroes, government mandates. (And stop searching for your passion, please).…and start creating and sharing work that matters, not just to you—but to everyone else.
