Dreams in Drive

How to Design a Career Journey you Love

How do you craft a career journey that makes sense for you? We sit down with Ara Tucker - SVP of Talent and Culture at Audible to chat her #dreamdriving journey and gain insights on what it means to chart a path that "feels right" for ourselves instead of one that others think "look right." Ara dives into her own career story and how she went from Princeton to law school to finding herself in a new space (Diversity & Inclusion). She talks about the power of being intentional when looking for a new position and what we can do to play up our strengths and interests in the job hunt. Ara also touches on how she includes her creative interests in her life outside of work - and why that's so important for Dream Drivers.

Some of the things we discuss on this episode include:

Play & possibility

Being ready when you receive "the call"

The power of taking risks

Why Ara hopes her journey as an openly gay, black woman encourages and inspires others

Finding time for life outside of work...and more
