It is designed for students drawn to study the humanities in college who might be concerned about what that might mean for their career. It's also for those who advise such students, whether as parents or professionals. The stories in this podcast debunk widespread misperceptions about humanities majors’ career prospects by highlighting some of the limitless possibilities for applying humanities knowledge and skills in today’s workforce. Season 1 features a diverse group of young professionals with humanities backgrounds working in a variety of industries.

Focusing on one individual per episode, the podcast invites listeners to learn what motivated them to study the humanities and how they built a successful and fulfilling career using the knowledge and skills they gained through those studies. In this way, the podcast traces pathways from undergraduate humanities majors to careers in law, medicine, public health, finance, technology, social enterprise, museums, public relations, philanthropy, podcasting, filmmaking, and high-end food production.
