121: Understanding Your Priorities & Establishing Boundaries in the Workplace


Listen Later

If today was your last day on earth, are you happy?

Whether you go into an office or work from home, you likely spend the majority of your time “at work” with colleagues. So if you’re not happy at your work, chances are, you’re not happy in life, which is not a healthy way to live.

And when you peel back the layers, many times it can be attributed to a misalignment between your priorities and your work, a lack of boundaries, and/or poor communication.

The good news is, these things are all fixable!

Joining me in this episode is my colleague and former manager, Terri Quinn. Terri started her career in the tech industry 25 years ago and was one of the early pioneers of the TME (Technical Marketing Engineer) role.

You’ll hear Terri share what it was like starting her career as a young wife and mother in a male-dominated, fast-paced, highly-demanding industry. She discusses how it taught her the importance of knowing what your priorities are (because not everyone does) and owning them without guilt.

You’ll also hear us discuss how to establish boundaries in the workplace by:

  • Understanding your priorities and using them as a guide in setting boundaries
  • Recognizing your power within and asking for what you want
  • Self-marketing yourself with effective communication

This episode is a mirror of the daily discussions that Terri and I had every day for the three years that she was my manager. While always supportive, she constantly challenged my way of thinking. Her influence had a profound impact on how I approach my work and my attitude towards it, which has changed my outlook and how I communicate with others beyond the job.
