How Can I Find a Career I'm Passionate About?

Dear Momofuku,
Ever since I moved to California from India 5years ago, I have been struggling to find my passion. I love my husband and I have two beautiful girls, but I need to do something outside my home to feel complete. I had a career in TV that I loved, but I cannot return to it without compromising the quality of care and time I want with my children and husband. How do I find my passion and balance?

Dear NiA,
Momofuku Ando once wrote, "Before I place orders with suppliers, I always visit their factories, speaking for long periods of time with their management teams." Have you considered asking for informational interviews at places where you might enjoy working?
