Finding a career you love isn’t about luck—it’s about intention, experimentation, and aligning with your values. In the inspiringvideo “How to Find a Career You Genuinely Love”, career coach Ashley Stahl shares her journey of leaving a high-profile government job to pursue more meaningful work—and how she helps others do the same. Her core advice? Start with who you are, not what you think you “should” do. By understanding your core skill set and choosing environments where those skills are valued, you can build a career that energizes you instead of drains you.
Whether you’re starting out, switching paths, or exploring your “second act,” Stahl’s message is clear: purpose and passion are possible at any age. You don’t need to wait for clarity—you can build it by taking action, reflecting on what excites you, and surrounding yourself with people and projects that feel aligned. When you tune in to what you love doing, you begin designing a career you genuinely want to wake up for.
What kind of work makes you feel most alive—and are you doing enough of it?
What skills do people consistently compliment you on or come to you for help with?
Are you building your career based on your values—or someone else’s expectations?
