When Following Your Passion Means Letting Go feat. Renee Murphy
Manage episode 507855378 series 3555781
What happens when the dream career you built turns into the very thing that drains your joy? In this episode, Alyssa talks with Renee Murphy about leaving behind a successful career in fashion to find peace, purpose, and a new passion in science and sustainability.
This is a powerful conversation about knowing when it’s time to let go, how to tell the difference between excitement and peace, and why creativity doesn’t disappear just because you change industries.
Why listen: If you’ve ever wondered what it really means to follow your passion (or struggled with giving up something others see as “success”) this conversation will give you clarity and courage.
Key Takeaways
- Passion that brings peace is different from passion that only excites—peace is lasting.
- Success without joy isn’t real success—it’s okay to walk away when it no longer serves you.
- Creativity follows you into any field—you don’t lose it when you pivot, you just apply it differently.
