Today show co-anchor Hoda Kotb examines people who discovered their true calling later in life. She profiles individuals who made dramatic career shifts to align with their deeper purpose. An investment banker left Wall Street to become a minister. A woman from a working-class family pursued her passion all the way to Harvard Medical School. A high-powered public relations executive abandoned corporate life for an innovative residential community. A man who never wanted children now dedicates his life to helping kids worldwide. Kotb also interviews celebrities including producer Mark Burnett, actress Roma Downey, comedian Margaret Cho, and former boxer Laila Ali about their own journeys toward fulfillment. Through these varied stories, the book explores how people recognize when their lives have drifted from their authentic path and find the courage to make significant changes. Kotb shows how following instinct and passion can lead to genuine satisfaction.
