Is that really what makes you whole?

"I think having the intention around, what is it that you want to do, and really being honest with yourself. Are you doing it for this reason, or are you doing it for that reason? And does that fulfill you? Is that really what makes you whole? And a lot of times, we compromise to have that image and vision of what we think success is, and that success might not be fulfilling to us."

This week’s “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from Tenia Davis, M.B.A., Ph.D.
