Life is hardly “one-size-fits-all”; why should education be any different?
In this episode, Francesca Cadhit interviews Jay Gosselin, Founder and Program Director of Discover Year, about helping young adults build essential skills for their careers and lives.
If you know or are a young person on a quest to self-discovery, this episode is a MUST.
Jay Gosselin uses his own non-traditional career path to demonstrate how action, communication, and authenticity are foundational in building a meaningful career. Jay was in Educational Counselling at the University of Ottawa and previously earned his Honours BA in Economics and Political Science at Queen's University. Now, he loves helping young people reach their full potential through Discover Year.
Jay’s single most important piece of advice to students leaving high school?
Make time in your life for the things that pique your curiosity, regardless of how "practical" they seem. Curiosities lead to passion, and passion, combined with your unique talent, will create purpose. Purposeful people make a living doing things they would do for free. As they say, "do something you love, and you'll never work a day in your life."
