Podsquad - Re-Ignite Episode 2: Dr. Kay Ko
play

08/17/20 • 22 min

Re-Ignite 

Life is all about discovering all the things that bring us joy, passion, and purpose.  I'm all about discovery and finding the intersectionality that all of us will experience if we're intentional about learning and growing. 

 

Over the next several months, I will take you on a journey with people who are finding new ways to reinvent themselves.  They are not static.  And, they don't sit around waiting for things to happen.  They create their own pathways and find meaning in everything they do. 

 

If you're passionate about finding what motivates others to reinvest in themselves, join us for a series of podcasts known as "Re-Ignite."  As always, please send us your comments, ideas, and suggestions.  And talk to us about the ways you're re-igniting your own lives.


Episode 2 Guest: Dr. Kay Ko

Dr. Kay Ko never thought she'd be working for the FBI, but a chance encounter with a representative from the bureau changed her life forever.  An important lesson for our listeners.  Keep an open mind when it comes to career paths.  Your next opportunity may be something completely out of the ordinary but actually end up being extraordinary.  Listen to Kay and you'll be inspired to explore the completely unexpected.
