 Listeners, the phrase "follow your dreams" is everywhere—in social media feeds, on murals, in graduation speeches—but what does it really mean in 2025, when the world feels more uncertain and competitive than ever? Banksy’s iconic “cancelled” mural in Boston serves as a stark reminder that the journey to realizing a dream is rarely a straight line, especially against the backdrop of economic pressures and evolving values.

We recently heard from Sarah Chen, who left a high-powered Wall Street career to found a sustainable fashion brand. For Sarah, following her dreams was less about chasing a fantasy and more about facing hard choices: letting go of financial certainty, weathering skepticism, and finding meaning in her work. She shared that fulfillment didn’t come from overnight wins, but from doing work that aligned with her values—a lesson echoed by new research from BetterUp, which finds that people who pursue their dreams, even if the path changes, are more satisfied and experience less regret.

But the call to “follow your dreams” can be complicated. According to entrepreneurship expert Simon Squibb, adversity is essential—pursuing a dream isn’t about shortcuts, it’s about building resilience through setbacks. He urges listeners not to measure success against trends or Instagram highlights, but instead to ask: What is truly worth wanting? Meanwhile, a 2025 UCLA study shows that most young people see financial obstacles as their main barrier, while half are influenced by idealized images on social media and hunger for more honest conversations about mental health and money.

On the “Follow Your Dreams” podcast, guests who’ve taken unconventional paths—from the artist who passed on a tech job to the travel journalist who dove into the unknown—admit the journey is rarely glamorous. Their message: start small, trust your instincts, and allow your dream to evolve. If you're wondering how to identify your dream, dig deep into what lights you up and why. Allow setbacks to inform, not define, you.

So listeners, remember: following your dreams isn’t about instant results or fitting someone else’s mold. It’s about discovering what matters, facing obstacles, and finding meaning in the pursuit itself. Take the first step, however small, and let the journey shape you.
