About
Second Calling is a podcast for professionals when the path they have been following no longer feels quite right, but what comes next has not yet come into view. Host Bradley Wright, a sociologist who studies purpose and change, talks with people who have navigated meaningful professional transitions and with experts who can help us understand what those moments require. The show explores both the inner and practical work of a next chapter: recognizing when something is ending, loosening an identity built around the old path, imagining credible alternatives, testing possibilities, and moving toward work with greater purpose.
