How could you possibly do this?
Coming up with a description of why you did it, what that process looked like, is really important.
And then pulling in people from that career, from your family, to kind of help you figure out that narrative so you're ready with your speech when people ask you.
Just being prepared so that you don't feel super ashamed or super embarrassed is something that we should all be doing for any kind of breakup.
Absolutely.
One of the important things is to have break moments in your conversation with yourself and others about what you want next.
I talk a little bit about this idea that we can slide into something instead of deciding into something.
In romantic relationships, this happens with cohabitation all the time.
Most people never actually have a conversation about moving in together.
They just slowly put their stuff in their other person's medicine cabinet.
And then before you know it, one day you live together.
This can happen with jobs too.
So you need to just take a moment, stop, think about what am I looking for?
Ask those tough questions.
So you don't slide into something that maybe is comfortable or that you have the skills for, but will have the same problems as the relationship that you just left.
finding what makes your day-to-day activities that low-level stuff enjoyable is really important we have these conversations around purpose-driven work about meaning making work that are so high level that we're often chasing these things but in reality most of us don't feel that at work our day-to-day is fairly mundane and love is really about finding those little small moments of joy at work
that can help you get through those long stretches of boring mundane stuff of feeling underappreciated seeing connections between the high level goals of your job and the low level stuff can really freshen up a job and then i'd say the last piece of advice is understand your daily stress triggers keep track of them they will absolutely kill your relationship with a person or with your career and we have a lot more control over those things than we realize and so that's something that i think people can have a better handle on to not fall in love with their jobs

If you have a job that involves something that an AI can do more efficiently or more quickly and doesn't involve human interaction, your head's going to be on the chopping block.
Thanks so much for having me.
Absolutely.
