The disruption of the last several years has led to a Great Reassessment of work, and many employees, finding their needs not being met in their current job, turned in their notices. Many of those needs were centered around practical concerns like money, or safety, or flexibility, but many also cited a desire for finding a job that would provide greater fulfillment, or even allow them to pursue their passion. Today's guest is Erin Cech, an Associate Professor with the Department of Sociology at University of Michigan and author of The Trouble with Passion: How Searching for Fulfillment at Work Fosters Inequality. Here, she explains:

- Passion and The Passion Principle;
- The shift from prioritizing stability in one's career to prioritizing work fulfillment;
- How prioritizing passion in the workplace can deepen cultural inequalities; and
