In today’s episode, we’re joined by Simone Stolzoff, author of “The Good Enough Job”. Simone brings incredible insight into redefining our relationship with work and finding balance in a culture obsessed with productivity.


Workism: Where did America’s obsession with work come from? Why it’s crucial to rethink tying our purpose, identity, and worth to our work. The truth about “do what you love” – is it all it’s cracked up to be? How diversifying our identity and sense of worth can transform our lives. Finding meaning and identity beyond “what you do.” Redefining success for true happiness.


+ SO MUCH MORE!
