92,000. That is the number of hours the average person spends at work during a lifetime. And our constant connectivity to our work means that number is growing. That is an enormous slice of life to spend in offices and job sites, away from friends and family. That is an enormous number of hours to sell and never get back. But what if those 92,000 hours were full of meaning, passion and purpose? What if we stop talking about work/life balance and start thinking about all of it as…life? How do we construct a working world that values and accommodates our humanity? How do we construct a life that is not separate from, but fueled by, the purpose we find in our work? In this podcast, we will explore those questions, and more. We will talk about life lessons and what happens when we bring our whole selves to our work, school, or community. Will we grow as individuals? As organizations? Together, we hope to explore our interest in cultivating meaning and purpose, and making sure those 92,000 hours are spent well, rather than simply spent.

This week we are joined by Tofi Ta'afua to talk about belonging.
Tofi discusses belonging at the workplace, particularly in her experience working in corporate America, although we believe her take-aways apply to any field. She answers questions like: How does diversity tie into belonging? What's the difference between belonging and inclusion? How can leaders ensure their staff feel like they can bring their full selves to work?
Tofi is a Senior Vice President in the banking industry. She pushes everyone that is close to her to have fun, work hard, and be unapologetically ourselves. She's originally from American Samoa and is now based in the New York City Metropolitan Area. She's an executive, an advocate, an ally, and a wonderful friend. You can connect with her LinkedIn.
