Lara Galinsky of Echoing Green answers listener questions about creating meaningful careers.  Britt Bravo hosts the show.Q1. I know what I want to do to change the world. I know my goals, and I know my projects.  But I haven't yet found a job title that allows me to work towards these goals. What are the risks versus rewards for going it alone, raising what funds you can to reach your goals, in the absence of any backing whatsoever?Q2. I've been in the IT and Software Industry for almost 30 years.  During the next couple years I am planning to transition to a career where I will help (or coach) people to create a career with impact.  I have been working with a few clients already during the last 12 months.One of the biggest challenges that people have who I have coached is to let go of the old, well paying and familiar job.  The reasons are the financial risk and the fear of starting at the bottom again in a new field after a successful career.  How can I help people with those two issues?
