Chart Your Own Path - A Panel on Finding Your Career Purpose
Not all career paths go in a straight line — and the most meaningful ones rarely do.
Join Lora for a thoughtful evening of honest conversation about building a career on your own terms. Whether you're mid-pivot, searching for meaning in your work, or simply questioning what's next, this panel is an invitation to slow down and reflect on the deeper forces — practical and astrological — that shape the paths we take.
Meet the panelists:
Natalia Villalobos — VP of Inclusion Strategy & Execution, The New York Times.
Natalia builds the systems that bring people together. At the NYT, she leads inclusion strategy across a 6,000+ person organization, standing up what doesn't exist and designing cross-functional solutions to some of the workplace's most complex challenges. She's a builder, a connector, and a strategic partner to C-suite leadership — with a career defined by finding the leverage points that create lasting impact.
Jessa Messina — Founder of YoJo, Workplace Wellness
Jessa has spent over 15 years studying astrology as both a personal practice and a tool for guiding others toward deeper self-awareness. Her readings blend astrological insight with a trauma-informed lens, helping people understand their unique gifts, patterns, and the meaning behind the moments unfolding in their lives. She's also the founder of YoJo, a corporate wellness company bringing holistic well-being into workplace environments.
Jo Spotswood — Career Astrologer & Coach
Jo spent eight years in the corporate world before her Saturn return catapulted her into self-employment — and she hasn't looked back. Now based in NYC, she uses astrology to help people identify individual and ancestral patterns shaping their lives, offering birth chart readings that illuminate blessings, blocks, and a clearer path forward. She brings both the insider perspective of corporate life and the expansive lens of someone who chose a different way.
