Summary

In this conversation, Megan Hellerer, a career coach and author of 'Directional Living', discusses the concept of living directionally rather than destinationally. She emphasizes the importance of fulfillment over mere achievement and explores how societal pressures can lead to feelings of unfulfillment among high achievers. Megan encourages listeners to embrace curiosity and make decisions based on what feels right for them, rather than what they think they should do with Megan and Adrienne exploring the concept of directional living in contrast to destinational living.


The book is available in stores and online. And you can follow Megan @meganhellerer.

got the email, I read the kind of synopsis of the book, and it spoke to me and to probably a lot of

women in my network. And then when I started listening to the book on audio, because many of the
