My Conversation with Jamie Arkin: Public Health, Life in Africa, Creating Your Life | Integrity and Joy
My guest on episode 3 of Integrity and Joy is Jamie Arkin, a New Yorker and former student of mine turned public health and development consultant based in Cape Town, South Africa.
Jamie grew up in New York and knew there was more in the world than that which she was raised in. With a plan from a young age to live around the world, Jamie did just that through taking every opportunity she had to put that goal first, through the ups and downs. Through regular self reflection, Jamie has built a life by design where she gets to make significant positive impact in her career in public health and development while trying to be open to redefining what success and joy look like.
This conversation is a fascinating story full of how one woman has created and manifested an incredible life for herself, full of meaning and adventure. It is sure to inspire you and is full of wisdom throughout. You'll hear about Jamie's vision for her life, key decisions that changed her and the trajectory of her journey, and the lessons she has learned along the way.
I think everyone will enjoy this episode, but if you know someone in their teens, 20s or 30s who is trying to find their path, please share it with them!
