Good Work
The Good Work Podcast shares insights, how-tos, and inspiration for doing meaningful work that supports your well-being. The show is for college students, early-career professionals, and purpose-driven workers at any stage of their careers who feel stretched thin or disillusioned and want their impact to be sustainable. It is also for those considering a pivot into careers that support the public good. Each week features interviews and stories from people doing good work locally and globally, plus researchers, thinkers, and leaders redefining good work at its cutting edges even as the world of work shifts around them. The podcast is hosted by Dr. Amy Cabrera Rasmussen.
