Maybe your heart changed too, and you decided it was the time to let it lead a little more, to let it take center stage. You are still the same Nora with sharp analytical skills, skills you developed in finance, skills you will still need as you undertake new endeavors. You are just choosing to use those skills differently now to support something more personal, more meaningful.

So while you've shifted into using your artistic side to help transform lives, I see it as you finally giving your heart the spotlight, but your head is still right there backing it up.

That's it for part one. We followed Nora's journey from mathematics and music to Morgan Stanley and back again. But the story's just getting good. In part two, we dig into how she's using music to challenge the status quo. Why classical doesn't mean stiff. and how her new album is both a personal statement and a public invitation. See you there. Thank you so much for joining us today.

And like you said, once you've made the decision, don't stop. Think ahead.
