In college, I often heard, “Focus on the degree; everything else can wait.” But, looking back, I wish someone had told me to savour the journey, to immerse myself in the moments that would shape not just my career but the person I would become. That’s the heart of the conversation with our guest, Sonia Cacique from Discover You, as we unravel the complexities of career exploration and the critical intersection with mental health.
With her rich expertise in education and counselling, Sonia shares insights on how honouring individual talents and passions can illuminate the path to a fulfilling vocation.
We confront mental wellness challenges, stressing the necessity of aligning career pursuits with our core values. We share candid reflections on how misaligned ambitions can strain mental health and relationships and why remaining adaptable, holding onto transferable skills, and nurturing our values are pivotal as we ride the waves of life’s ever-changing seasons.
