Ben Higgins on the secret to finding meaning in our work
We all want our work to have a meaning, both personally and on a wider scale too. So, in those times when we may find ourselves in jobs where the meaning isn’t obvious or when we go through times of falling out of love with the work we do, how can we find significance where we are?
Our guest today, Ben Higgins, is the author of ‘Alone in Plain Sight' and the founder of ‘Generous’ a company where 100% of its profits from its products are donated to life-changing organisations. And after starring in the US reality show ‘The Bachelor’ he realised that finding meaning in the work we do is rooted much deeper than our material wealth.
In this episode, Ben opens up about the work he does with ‘Generous’, the key to finding meaning in our work even on the days when the bigger picture is hard to see, and why he’s had to re-define his meaning of success in order to find significance in the work he carries out.
