Teaching Tangents #3: How Do I Find a Job I Really Like, and Get Paid?

Audio only podcast version

Our latest episode of Teaching Tangents with my good friend and business teacher James D’Souza in London. He picked this student question, and while we begin with the Japanese concept of living a fulfilled life, #Ikigai, we are also in the midst of #BlackLivesMatter protests. We link our conversation from careers, to colonialism, slavery, to attempting to explain systemic phenomenons (and systemic racism in particular, of course), design thinking, and more.

It’s a bit long, but I hope you enjoy it!
