本期简介
一个纽约人,是如何在巴黎重新开始的?
很多时候,我们会以为人生必须沿着一条清晰的路线往前走:读书、工作、稳定下来,然后继续走在熟悉的轨道上。
但如果有一天,你突然意识到,自己想换一个方向呢?
如果你已经在一个行业工作了很多年,过去的经验还重要吗?
重新开始,真的会太晚吗?
这一期,我和来自纽约的 Camille 聊了聊她的故事。
她曾在教育领域工作十多年,尤其长期与低龄儿童一起工作。后来,她选择来到巴黎学习艺术管理,从一个熟悉的职业路径,走向一个新的领域。
我们聊到了重新开始、转行、好奇心、信心、情绪智慧,也聊到了过去的经验如何在新的阶段继续发挥作用。
这不是一个“成功转型模板”的故事,而是一场关于勇气、耐心、好奇心和自我重建的对话。
如果你也曾想过改变人生方向,想转行,想重新学习,或者正在某个不确定的阶段里寻找下一步,这一期也许会让你感到被理解。
Episode Description
How does a New Yorker start over in Paris?
In this episode, I talk with Camille, a New Yorker who moved to Paris to study Arts Management after spending over ten years working in education, especially with young children.
We talked about starting over, changing careers, curiosity, confidence, emotional intelligence, and how past experiences can continue to shape a new path.
Camille grew up surrounded by auction catalogues at home. At the time, she may not have realised it, but those images and stories quietly planted a connection between her and the art world.
This is not a story about a perfect career transition. It is a conversation about courage, patience, curiosity, and rebuilding one’s path in a new city, a new field, and a new stage of life.
If you have ever wondered whether it is too late to change direction, return to study, or begin again, this episode may speak to you.

本期嘉宾 / Guest
Camille|New Yorker / Arts Management Student / Former Educator
Camille is from New York. Before coming to Paris to study Arts Management, she spent over ten years working in education, especially with young children.
Her story moves between education, art, New York, Paris, and the question of how a person can carry past experiences into a new chapter of life.
本期亮点 / Highlights
重新开始,不一定意味着推翻过去
Starting over does not mean erasing the past.
Camille 的故事提醒我们,过去的经验并不会消失。它们会变成新的观察力、沟通方式和情感理解力,继续支持我们走向下一段人生。
Camille’s story reminds us that past experiences do not disappear. They can become new forms of observation, communication, and emotional understanding.
从教育到艺术管理
From education to arts management.
她曾经长期在教育领域工作,后来选择来到巴黎学习艺术管理。这不是一次简单的职业转换,而是一次重新理解自己兴趣和能力的过程。
After years in education, Camille chose to study Arts Management in Paris. This was not just a career change, but a process of reconnecting with her interests and abilities.
好奇心是改变的起点
Curiosity can be the beginning of change.
很多改变并不是因为我们已经完全准备好,而是因为心里一直有一个声音,想知道自己是否还能走向另一种可能。
Many changes do not begin because we feel fully ready. They begin because there is a quiet curiosity about what else might be possible.
年龄不是重新开始的终点
Age is not the end of beginning again.
