    Episode 4: Cynthia Shih Global recycling, career reinvention… and the double life of Vienna Teng Yesh (00:07): I'm Yesh Pavlik Slenk, and this is Degrees: real talk about planet saving careers from Environmental Defense Fund. Vienna Teng, singing (00:18): It's time to come on out. There will be no sign from above. You only hear the knock-knock-knock of your own heart. Yesh (00:30): Our guest today is Cynthia Shih, climate change activist and Director of Knowledge at mckinsey.org. But you might know her better by her stage name, Vienna Teng. As a professional musician, Cynthia toured the globe. She's played more than a thousand concerts. She was a guest on Letterman and appeared on NPR. Vienna Teng, singing (00:56): …your body feels the talk-talk-talk. Yesh (00:56): The song we're listening to "Level Up", came out on her fifth studio album, "Aims", back in 2013.The lyrics are a call to action. Don't let your fears keep you from doing what your conscience tells you is. Right? Cynthia says she was speaking to herself as much as anyone. Cynthia Shih (01:16): I realized that I want to be part of a community of people who are committed to solving climate change. Even if they don't know whether it can be solved. Yesh (01:28): When she wrote those lyrics, she had just answered the knocking that she felt in her own heart to pursue a purpose-driven career. So she ditched the tour bus and tackled a dual master's degree, an MBA and a Master's of environmental science at the University of Michigan.
