Welcome back to another episode of Permission to Flow. I’m your host, Jessica Hwang, and today we’re diving deep into a topic that I know so many of you can relate to—feeling completely drained by the end of your workday. If you’ve ever found yourself collapsing onto the couch, too exhausted to even think about pursuing your passions or working on that side hustle, this episode is for you.

 

In today’s conversation, we’ll explore three major themes to help you reclaim your energy and start redirecting it towards what truly matters to you. First, we’ll talk about releasing yourself from the draining stories you tell yourself about your workday. Next, we’ll discuss the importance of not taking on more responsibilities and chasing promotions you don’t actually want. Finally, we’ll look at how to make your current job work for you by using it as a stepping stone towards your true career goals.

 

Topics discussed in this episode include:
  • [01:31] Identifying with Exhaustion and Draining Jobs
  • [02:25] Reclaiming Your Energy: Three Key Strategies
  • [03:15] Changing the Story Around Your Job
  • [12:57] Stop Taking on More and Chasing Promotions
  • [18:55] Making Your Job Serve Your Future Goals

 

Quotes from the episode:

How can you change the story that you’re creating around the things that are going on around you? Because they’re not going to stop happening but you get to choose and empower yourself in your reaction to them.

 

We don’t need to get caught up in the rat race. It’s okay to just be and let your job be a job and let your job support where you want to go but not get caught up in it.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
