Find Your Passion

Episode 51–Find Your Passion

We often hear people talk about wanting to ‘find their passion’, but how do you really make that happen?

How does one go about finding out where their passions lie? What are some practical steps that they can take to explore this avenue?

Gale Horton Gay, the lifestyle editor of The Champion Newspaper and author of new children’s book, ‘Daddy Makes Walking Fun’, gives us the 411 on finding your passion.

Gale shares that each season of life can bring its own passion and not everything that we feel passionate about has to be monetized.

She talks about how pain and failure can be a factor in finding your passion and gives practical steps on how to discover the things that will make your life fulfilling.

It celebrates the relationship between father and daughter instead of focusing on material things.
