So many of us strive to find that ‘perfect job’, but once we get there, do we run the risk of having it become our sole focus, to the detriment of everything else in our lives?
I asked my very close friend Sabina Read to join me on a deep dive discussion into work and identity to try and get to the bottom of this. Sabina is a clinical psychologist, regular contributor on 3AW and co-host of the popular podcast Human Cogs.
Sabina and I discuss:
- Why having an occupation that aligns with our personal identity is a good thing
- If having a personally aligned career can lead to a lack of balance
- An easy way to identify if you are letting your vocation swallow your sense of self
