Today I’m speaking with the wonderful Samantha Clarke, happiness consultant, speaker, podcast host, & author of Love It or Leave It: How to be Happy at Work. As a happiness consultant, Samantha is on a mission to liberate individuals from work they no longer love to find a path to true work happiness. As a faculty lecturer at the School of Life and The Guardian Masterclasses, she facilitates workshops on career potential, building a portfolio career, managing stress, confidence and authentic leadership.Samantha is also the host of the podcast series, "Conversations with Samantha&" and the newer series, "Love it or Leave It with Samantha&...", in which she interviews individuals who have taken the reigns on their own work happiness.I found so much value in Samantha's words that I decided to add my own personal reflections to the end of this episode.
