In this introductory episode of "A Life Worth Working," hosts Michelle Weise, an education and workforce strategist, and Dana Allen Walsh, a senior pastor, discuss their journey in learning to podcast and explore the deeper aspects of finding purpose and meaning in work. They share personal stories about transitioning careers and questioning their callings, drawing on the concept that "nothing is wasted." Michelle shares her journey from academia and disruptive innovation to focusing on fulfillment, while Dana reflects on her unexpected path to becoming a pastor.

âA Life Worth Workingâ is a podcast hosted by a disruptive innovation expert and a reverend, but it's not a religious podcast. We feature the gloriously messy stories about career paths that we like to call the spaghetti pathways of our work lives. Even those who appear to have it all figured out are fumbling their way through. Our guests talk about the pitfalls, the whispers they couldnât ignore, or the moments of release that enabled them to jump to something unexpected. And perhaps most importantly, they talk about the messiest, hardest, and most painful parts of their journeys that created the conditions for new life and growth â all in quick, punchy 20-minute episodes.
Once you subscribe to âA Life Worth Workingâ (wherever you get your podcasts), you'll get a special little episode delivered every Thursday: a precious, little gem we lovingly call a "Shit Pile Episode" (yep, we curse hereâand it's totally OK!). Each guest shares the shittiest moment of their careers and how vital and life-giving those moments ended up being.
And then the following Tuesday, youâll get to hear a full episode with that particular guest. But heads up: we donât repeat the Thursday stories in the Tuesday ones, so subscribe now! You definitely don't want to miss our stories about the muddy mess. -
