26k Podcast // Art of meaningful work

Karen Gimbel was a president of an eye correction organization spanning Canada and the US in 2001. Having taken the company public, she felt it was time for change. It took a few years for the stars to align when she and her husband decided to get rid of their worldly possessions, pack a car and set off for 2 years of vagabonding. In this podcast, we talk about the practice of letting go, listening to your life, defining success and not giving up (in her late 40s, Karen became an accomplished artist).
