Is there even such a thing as “happily ever after”?

On most podcasts, it’s the hosts asking the questions. But then again, disruption strategist Shawn Kanungo does everything a little differently. So, when he came on the HowToFairytale pod, he asked *us,* this simple question, “Is there such a thing as ‘happily ever after’?”

The bold question surprised us, but should it really have? After all, Shawn’s known for his boldness. He travels the country inspiring individuals to explore how they can step into something new, something disruptive, something they’ve dreamed about but lacked the courage to dive in on. 

Follow along as Shawn talks about stretching, reaching, and boldly moving forward. . . always.

Zach needed a job. So, he signed on to be a project manager for a construction company.

He showed up to the first day of work, not knowing what they would be building.

Turns out, it was Galaxy’s Edge, (aka, Star Wars land, at Disneyland). That unexpected experience was a key in leading him to his current role, what he calls a unicorn of a job at Storyland Studios since it combines all of his experiences from creative writing to business to the Disney Parks.

Zach loves what he does, but he’s been in the shoes of someone who’s a bit stuck – someone dealing with imposter syndrome or someone who’s discouraged because they’ve been trying to reach their dreams and they’re stuck. If that’s you, this is your episode.

How do you find the intersection of passion and commercial viability? Said differently—is it possible to do what you love and make money on it?

That’s exactly what we asked editor Noah TK on this episode of #HowToFairytale. He has an interesting perspective—he’s an editor at Portfolio (a division of Penguin Random House, the largest publisher in the USA). From his vantage point, he gets to help authors’ dreams of getting published become a reality. But what about his dreams? Was being an editor what he always wanted to do?

Actually no. He had to find the intersection between his passion and what would pay the bills.

Join us for this very special —and candid—look at what it takes for creatives, artists, and others to “make it” in today’s world.
