There is a career you were told to want. It has a name your relatives can pronounce. It comes with a salary chart, a linkedin badge, and a slow bleeding of the thing you used to call joy.
And there is a career you actually want. It doesn't have a title yet. It combines two things nobody has combined in the same paragraph before. It scares you a little on Sunday nights.
The hardest work of a career is not the work. It is telling these two apart.
