What Do You Love?
"What do you do?" is a question that is about as automatic as it gets when meeting someone new. It also happens to be dreaded by many, namely those who are undergoing career changes or hoping to seek out an identity outside of their 9-5.
Posing the question "What do you love?" instead invites people to open up about the things that actually make them who they are and truly make them tick. Deeper and more meaningful conversations can abound if we seek to learn more about someone's "why"s over their "what"s, and back-burnering the topic of their past, present, or future occupation.
Join host Justin Gott for this weekly show as he presents the titular question to thoughtful and interesting people in order to learn more about the them that exists outside of their daily line of work... and maybe pick up a thing or two about himself in the process.
What Do You Love?
Being Perennially Middle-Aged & Standing Up To Bullies
My guest for this episode is Brandon Wilson. During our conversation, we discussed the profound effect that Death has had on his life and how that’s shaped his attitude toward life’s more trivial issues, why your 40s are “peak you,” the differences between Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z, how and when to embrace your flaws, a forks-in-the-road story for the ages, and ultimately, why he loves bearing witness to people standing up to bullies.
