S3 Ep 8. What to learn about careers from people at the end of life with Dr Kathryn Mannix (Author, With the End in Mind; TEDx speaker; retired palliative care consultant)
Show Notes

Dr Kathryn Mannix is a retired palliative care consultant who also trained as a therapist, setting up the UK’s first cognitive behavioural therapy service for people at the end of life.

Kathryn is the author of two books, With the End in Mind and Listen, and a media speaker and campaigner for better public understanding of dying.

We got a really unique perspective on the right work from Kathryn, discussing questions like:

  • What perspective can we gain from how dying people look back at their careers?
  • What did Kathryn learn from her own career about how to identify the right work?
  • And how can people with busy jobs and lives carve out space to move into a career that’s more right for them?
