Skydiving In The Office - It Doesn't Have to Be Soul Crushing

Do you feel stuck in a soul-crushing job? Maybe you work in a corporate office or are an entrepreneur trying to build a business, but you no longer have that drive and passion that once drove you to push forward. In the corporate world, there is a stigma that all corporate jobs are – or eventually become – soul-crushing.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this episode, I discuss the stigma often associated with corporate work and explain why I don’t believe anything has to be considered soul-crushing. I discuss how shifting your perspective on your current situation enables you to feel more free and joyful and the importance of living in the moment to set yourself free of these negative feelings. I explain how speaking your truth, asking for what you want, and setting boundaries can help you feel alive and help you reconnect with your true self. I also explain the difference between those ‘soul-crushing’ feelings and the desire to do something different, as well as how you can begin to live in the moment and start ‘skydiving in the office.’

“Everything’s an opportunity to grow. Everything’s an opportunity to be alive. And everything’s an opportunity to connect.” - Mark Silverman
