On today’s episode, I’m talking to health equity researcher Dr. Alicia Whittington about discovering your purpose.
Alicia is the Assistant Director of Engagement and Health Equity Research for the Football Players Health Study at Harvard University. Additionally, she’s the co-investigator of Family Experiences Managing Football Lives, studying the impact of supporting the NFL player on the family unit. Alicia shares how her lived experiences and her family’s history have shaped her career journey and led her to where she is today. Trained in public health research and the sister of two NFL players, Alicia began studying the impact of professional football on players during graduate school and hasn’t looked back. She discovered her purpose and has relied on this knowledge during moments of doubt to remember why she’s doing the work.
We talk about:
- Making career decisions one step at a time by choosing the best option from the information available at the time.
- Remaining true to yourself and showing up to places with authenticity.
- Finding support from your family and network to sustain you through the highs and lows.
