ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For the third and final episode of the "Sustaining Your Journey" series, I’m joined by Sarah Bell — Director of Principal Giftsat Harvard Business School. Sarah has spent nearly two decades at Harvard, including 19 years at Harvard Law School, building a career rooted in connection and purpose.
Sarah reflects on dedicating 19 years to one shop and all of the growth that took place during that chapter of her life. In our conversation, we talk about what happens when your work becomes part of your identity — and how hard it can be to separate who you are from what you do. Sarah opens up about learning to love her work without letting it define her.
