E.H. Rick Jarow, Ph.D.
E.H. Rick Jarow, Ph.D., has transformed the way the world thinks about their work, purpose and vocation. As the pioneer of the anti-career movement and author of Creating the Work You Love, he has helped thousands open to their intuition, transform their values into action and answer their true calling. In the last few years, Rick’s work has centered around the art and science of manifestation (as offered in his book and workshop, The Alchemy of Abundance). Similar to his work in career and vocation, these teachings transcend overly simplistic approaches. They dive deeper into the alchemical possibilities of loving what is, recognizing your greater purpose and moving towards your own healed vision, on both an individual and a cultural level. Rick is Associate Professor of Religion at Vassar College.
