<p>Ever since we started How I Got Here, we have been looking to learn from the various tools, analyses, and thought processes that people use as they design successful careers for themselves. But, as our guest today exemplifies, sometimes good decisions don't come from a pros and cons list or from crunching data -- they come from a strong sense of intuition and trust in oneself. Dr. Howard Murad's career -- which spans pharmacology and medicine, military service in Vietnam, and ultimately building a skincare empire at the age of 50 -- was fueled by a strong sense of conviction in his gut feelings. Listen to how Dr. Murad used his intuition to conquer numerous challenges in his career and life, and become the world renowned skincare expert and innovator that he is known as today.</p>

<h2>Omar Shahine, Corporate VP of Product at Microsoft, has had a passion for computers since the fourth grade, but growing up, he never considered going into technology. When it came to thinking about careers, Omar wanted the surest path to success and security, which based on what he knew, meant he should become a doctor. He believed that all he needed to do was study hard, go to a good school, and the rest would take care of itself. Instead, Omar found himself kicked off that path.</h2> <h2>Thankfully, through his time using computers as a hobby, he was able to get a job at Microsoft, which is where he’s worked for the last twenty years! In a world where company hopping has become the default, Omar’s career journey offers a great perspective on how you can craft a meaningful career and life without moving from place to place</h2>

<p>During college, Catherine Halaby developed a strong view of what she wanted to do in the world. Ultimately, she wanted to work for the United Nations and support countries post conflict. After graduation, she found herself at a desk job in DC, writing grants and itching to be actually out in the field. But when she finally got the opportunity to be in the thick of it, things did not go well. She found herself in a moment of crisis, questioning her path and how she would be able to contribute. </p> <p>Catherine’s story is one of the biggest “plot twist” career stories we have ever shared on How I Got Here. I hope you enjoy hearing how she went from avoiding all on-campus recruiting to becoming an MBA graduate to where she is today, leading content partnership at TikTok.</p>
