In this episode, Martin and Amber revisit a conversation about their past experiences, focusing on Amber's transition from a volunteer manager in a religious organization to a dedicated professional in project management. Thirteen years ago, Amber was managing large-scale events with hundreds of volunteers, a role that prepared her for a career as a project manager. Despite initial disillusionment, she found solace and purpose in project management, a field that not only validated her skills but also facilitated her departure from an organization whose values she no longer shared. Amber's journey underscores the alignment between her intrinsic project-driven nature and her professional aspirations.
