Takeaways

• Common signs of job dissatisfaction include lack of motivation, stress, anxiety, and feeling disconnected from oneself.

• Job dissatisfaction can be caused by factors such as lack of progression, feeling undervalued, outgrowing the current role, or not enjoying the workplace dynamics.

• It is important to determine if the dissatisfaction is from the job itself or external factors, and self-awareness is key in understanding one's needs.

• Building confidence is crucial in making a career switch, and taking small steps and honouring promises to oneself can help in building self-trust and confidence.

• Fear of judgment and fear of the unknown are common types of resistance when making a career change, and addressing these fears through self-acceptance and focusing on the people one is there to serve can be helpful.
