I Had A Dream World Bank Job. An Empty Home.

विवरण

Jane Onoka had the kind of career most people build vision boards around — a seat at the table at the World Bank, working on problems that shape economies and move nations. She was flying high, literally and figuratively. Then she made a choice that stunned people around her. She walked away. Not because she failed. Not because it got hard. But because something else called louder. In this conversation, Jane pulls back the curtain on what life inside one of the world's most powerful institutions actually looks like — the travel, the pressure, the identity that comes with that title on your business card. And then she takes us through the quieter, harder question she had to sit with: what do I actually want my life to look like? This episode doesn't romanticize sacrifice, and it doesn't vilify ambition. It just tells the truth — about what it costs to chase a career like that, what you find when you slow down, and what "success" can mean when you're the one defining it. If you've ever questioned a decision that looked crazy from the outside but felt right on the inside, Jane's story will land differently for you. 💛 Love what you're hearing?
