Modern Advice Podcast
Welcome to the Modern Advice Podcast with your Host, Phoebe Kuhn; Storyteller, Entrepreneur & Gonzo Journalist. I travel the world exploring what it means to be human, immersing myself in anything unconventional, all in the name of personal growth… and of course, to get the story. I do it for the plot and I tend to go to the extreme.
In this Podcast, we are going to explore a range of topics from philosophy and psychology, to relationships, sexuality, personal evolution & wellness.
I love deep conversations and shifting perspectives on the taboo. If you know me in real life, you know exactly what I’m talking about. In this Podcast, I hope to do just that. This will be a space where you can learn, laugh, and grow. In our Ask Phoebe segment, I will be answering YOUR questions on anything from friendship and dating to travel, purpose and work. You are shaping this conversation so make sure you send your questions in voice memo format to phoebe@modernadvicepodcast.com.
I’m so excited to embark on this journey of the human experience with you.

13. Purpose vs. Career: Why ‘Do What You Love’ is Bad Advice (and What to do Instead)
In this episode, I explore the tension between purpose and career. For years, I believed that success meant turning my passion into my paycheck, but over time, I found this approach more limiting than liberating.
I’m breaking down why the “do what you love” narrative can set us up for frustration, and how I’ve shifted my focus toward creating a life where purpose and career don’t have to be the same thing.
We’ll cover:
- The risks of tying your purpose to your career
- Why finding fulfillment outside of work is essential
- The concept of “authentic money” that aligns with your values
- The journey to embrace a more holistic approach to success
This is an honest conversation about letting go of unrealistic expectations and finding a balance between purpose, career, and personal growth.
