In this episode of Characters from Corporate, we explore the tough choices faced by a recent MBA graduate from the University of Virginia. After landing multiple offers from prestigious Big Four consulting firms, they find themselves wrestling with a major dilemma: pursue the safe, lucrative corporate path or follow their true passion—managing artists in the music industry.

Caught between career expectations and personal fulfillment, our guest grapples with guilt over their expensive education and fear of disappointing their significant other, who envisioned a different future. Eric and Stew unpack the emotional struggle of aligning professional achievements with personal dreams and offer practical advice for moving forward without regret.

Tune in to hear a candid conversation about redefining success, challenging societal expectations, and navigating career crossroads when your heart and mind are pulling you in opposite directions.
