Do What I Love, Love What I Do
Career Mentoring Workshop
"I'm not sure what I'd want to do in the future, so how do I even choose what to study? Will doing what I enjoy pay me enough? Will I be happy and have a future if I pursue my passions?"
If these thoughts are familiar to you, then you're not alone. Such questions are often raised when we're keen to build a purposeful and bright future, yet ironically, these emotions leave us feeling even more stuck than before, as we look for the right answers".
You might get the impression that we live in a world of dichotomy - to either make money, or to be happy. Could there not be an in-between?
Join us on 23rd June, 7:30 pm for a workshop organized by Metropolitan YMCA Singapore (MYMCA) and Asia Institute of Mentoring (AIM) to hear from youths who have navigated through challenges, social and family expectations to find success in what they love to do.
This is a workshop like no other where you will also get to experience:
1. The benefits of group mentoring from industry professionals
2. And how being supported by a mentor can help ignite your passion, guide you to develop an actionable plan to flourish in your career aspiration.
This will also be an opportunity for further networking with like-minded peers with similar career aspirations.
