Episode 95:
Don’t Link Your Identity to Your Job
Do you define yourself by your job title?
You have worked hard to get where you are and you’re proud of the talents and skills you have, I completely get it! But you are more than just a job title – you are a friend, a parent, a volunteer; you have hobbies, interests and activities. All of these things are part of your identity too.
In this episode I ask you some tough questions, including:
- Are you missing out on family events?
- What would you do if your job disappeared tomorrow?
- If you lost your job, would you lose personal happiness?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then you need to take some steps today, and start using the strategies I share with you in this podcast, to untangle your identity from your paycheck.
