Welcome to Passerelle, a podcast designed to spark the curiosity of French learners.
Emilie , , .
Hi, I'm Emilie, and this week, as usual, I'd like to take a few minutes to think about something together.
, .
In each episode, I try to bring you different topics to explore.
, .
My goal is simply to share some food for thought and encourage you to start asking yourself questions in French.
, .
Today, let's talk about work and passion.
, .
The idea that you have to be passionate about your job is something that's becoming increasingly common these days.
.
Work should be about more than just earning a living.
, .
It should be a calling, a part of who we are, and give meaning to our lives.
, , , , .
I often see the expression "a passion job" in podcasts, books, and articles.
, , .
You've probably heard the saying: "Choose a job you love, and you'll never work a day in your life."
, .
Personally, I'm a bit wary of this way of looking at things.
, , .
When I say I'm wary, or wary of something, it means I don't trust it.
.
I think we should be careful with these kinds of ideas.
, .
The connection between passion and work is a very current topic.
deux .
This has been even more true over the past two years.
.
Many people want to quit their jobs or switch careers.
, , .
From this observation, we can ask the following question: why is passion increasingly valued at work?
, .
First things first, let's shed some light on the idea of a "métier passion".
, .
Even though passion hasn't always been considered a positive thing, today it's associated with certain professions in particular.
, , .
Next, we'll explore the trap of the "passion profession," why we talk so much about passion in business, and what the potential consequences are.
