Stage 2 — Call to Adventure
Entrepreneurship is often described as a strategic or financial decision, but it can also be understood as a profound inner journey. In The Entrepreneur’s Hero’s Journey: Stage 2 — Call to Adventure, Dr. MJ Yang explores the moment when an individual begins to sense the pull toward entrepreneurship. Inspired by the Hero’s Journey framework and viewed through a Jungian psychological lens, this stage represents the awakening of curiosity, possibility, and the desire for a different path.
The “Call to Adventure” may appear as a new idea, a growing dissatisfaction with the status quo, or an opportunity that invites change. At this stage, comfort and dissatisfaction often coexist, creating a tension that signals the potential for meaningful transformation. Rather than rushing to act, this moment invites reflection: What is calling you toward something new, and what might it reveal about your evolving professional identity?
