Best of Replay! Is Your Identity Tied Up in Your Job?
This week, Mimi and I are replaying the best of this year's episodes. Join us this week as we talk about losing your identity in your job and your title.
If someone asked you, who are you… would you immediately start talking about your role at work, your business, or your overall career?
Somehow this has become the norm.
Gen X women have lost their identity. Our worth has gotten wrapped up in what we do professionally. We use the success of our career or business as a way to measure up.
Here’s the thing, we’re so much more than what we do during our day. When we own our worth from who we are, not what we do we become unstoppable.
In this episode, we’re talking about why we’ve lost ourselves in our work and how to find our way back.
