Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Bruce Feiler back to the podcast. Bruce has written seven New York Times bestsellers, given three TED Talks viewed more than 4 million times and teaches the TED course How to Master Life's Transitions, and has been a longtime columnist for the New York Times. 

While our previous conversation was all about navigating transition, this episode focuses on Bruce's new book, The Search: Finding Meaningful Work in a Post-Career World. In the book, Bruce shares a toolkit with 21 questions to find work that you love. 

In our conversation, we explore the different aspects of work that make it more meaningful, what a "workquake" is and why the average American has at least 20 of them in their lifetime. We'll also walk you through the process of conducting a “meaning audit” to live the life you want–not the one you think you should.
