Tevis on How To Actually Love What You Do with Karen Weeks: Shine at Work Podcast

Listen to it HERE!!


In this week’s episode, I talk with Tevis Trower about her journey through many “on paper” impressive corporate roles into a career as a leadership futurist, an organization nerd and work that allows her to answer the question of “Do I Matter” with affirmation and joy. After years of looking around large corporations and not seeing people who reflected her values and honestly weren’t even reflections of their true selves, missing that aliveness that is inside all of us. Now she helps high-performers and leaders identify what their heart actually longs for in their career (spoiler alert it’s not money and title).

  • The full quote Tevis kicks off our conversation referencing (from Martin Luther King Jr): “If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well. '”

In this episode, you’ll specifically learn...

  • How work does not have to be a four-letter word, but instead a relationship with others and ourselves
