I’ve gone through two major career changes. It’s not for everyone. In contemplating the steps to make them, the changes can be daunting because there is no blueprint for career transition. Today, I have a very special guest, Amaris White, who has made such a change and we’re going to hear her story about how she did it and what inspired her change. Amaris shares the catalyst for leaving her job as a highly paid corporate lawyer and the 7 year long discovery journey she's made to be where she is right now. Through the 7 years, she's taken on a job that paid 1/3 of her corporate law days, traveled the world and emailed (instead of called) her parents about her career decision. This is a wonderful personal story to encourage us all to think about how we choose to spend our time in the office. About Amaris White: Amaris White is a compulsive globe trotter and impact leader with experience in nonprofit management, corporate law, and academia. She’s a California transplant and moved to NYC 15 years ago and now a proud Jersey city resident for the last 2.5 years. She is the impact investing principal at Morgan Lewis.
