🎁 Bonus Resource: 200 Impact Areas 💥 A Purpose Guide for Your Career
The key to finding my life's passion was a spreadsheet (that's not even a joke.) ..7 years ago I co-founded a company in career consulting (still running). I talked with >hundreds< of professionals who hit the glass ceiling of Maslow's hierarchy of needs in their "golden job cages." Safe, well-paid, but no self-transcendence - no impact that is in line with their values. At some point I had to ask myself: wait, is career consulting in line with >my< passions and values? Ehh.. well it wasn't. #oops I was very lucky that a friend shared a life-changing resource with me. It covers 120+ impact areas across food, politics, mobility, energy and many other fields with 400+ example companies. I rated the impact areas on a scale of 0 = I wouldn't roll around in bed for this and 10 = I am willing to pack my luggage and travel across the world. My 9's were and are food waste, alt proteins, vertical farming, regenerative agriculture, and plastic replacements. My only 10 was cellular agriculture. I stared at it with an open mouth. I was AMAZED. Seriously. How was it possible that I didn't realize everything is connected to food? This is why I started the Red to Green Podcast because these are ALL the topics I care about.
