Jobs can be one of those things in life where people only tend to talk about the downsides. They complain about the jobs that wear them down, the bosses who treat them like cogs instead of human beings, and the hours and duties that break their backs in exchange for a pittance in their bank account.

It’s important, I think, for people to also talk about the things they love about their jobs, so that people know it’s possible and even important to expect some sort of satisfaction at work.

What is the one most empowering thing about your profession? I'll go first.

Journalism: Amplifying the voices that otherwise would not reach the powerful.

12. Teaching at its best.

Why so many teachers keep going despite the downsides.

I help build careers of students, get a purpose and direction in life.
