Not every conversation will change your life, but any conversation can.

So a sort of openness to people and to listening to people and what they could be teaching

you, you'd be surprised when you go back through your life and think of the totally random

conversations that have stuck with you and actually taught you something unexpected.

So everyone's in a while. I get to spotlight a friend who's also a fellow podcast host,

slash producer, slash awesome human. This week's guest, Liz Dolan, is just that.

She, in fact, is the co-host of a podcast whose name I love. I hate my boss. And it's

all about the world of work and it's done in a really interesting creative way. And

she kind of gets to drop along with her co-host, Larry Seale. Some amazing wisdom about how

you build your career and how you make your decisions. I am very excited to also be a guest on

their podcast this week. We kind of had fun trading conversations. And what's really cool also

is that Liz is my guest here with us today. And we dive into her journey because I got curious

where did she learn all of this sort of like crazy awesome wisdom about building a career.

Turns out, she actually went to school and graduated with a degree in comparative literature

and French. And from there, somehow ended up as the global head of marketing for Nike, then kind

of pendulum back into this massively creative non-megacompanied world and has gone back and forth

between these huge, huge, huge organizations at highest levels. And then these deeply personal

creative endeavors for years at a time, I was really fascinated how that informed her lens on

building a career, building a meaningful work life and living a good life. And that's where we're

going today. Liz Dolen, co-host of I Hate My Boss. You can hear me over there. I think it's

airing today as well also. And a deep dive into her amazing journey. I'm Jonathan Fields and this is

Good Life Project.
