Doing What You Love and Loving What You Do – Part I with Justine Willis Toms & Michael Toms

Product Description

To actually be paid for doing what you love would be a dream come true.  But how do you discover your passion?  And how do you find a way to bring that spirit into the workplace?  Michael and Justine Toms, co-founders of New Dimensions Broadcasting Network, are living proof that it can be done.  In this dynamic dialogue they talk about how to discover your passion, cope with a toxic work environment and move with “radical trust.”  As Michael says, “Creativity comes out of chaos.  When the hardest lessons and most difficult experiences are in front of us, that’s where the gold is, that’s where the real nitty-gritty of your own authenticity lies.”  Discover ways to find your passion and bring it alive in work and play.  Remember, “This is not a galactic penal colony–life is meant to be fun.”  (hosted by Jacqui Dunne)
