I’ve coached so many women who’ve told me straight out: “I hate my job!” I even know a woman who crawled under her desk (I’m being 100% serious). I’m sharing the 3 reasons why professional women really hate their jobs. Because here’s the thing.

If you currently hate your job, you might think you know why. The boss is a jerk, you’re doing too much, you’re not getting recognized, etc. But I’ve been able to isolate 3 reasons why you REALLY hate your job. And stick with me, because these might not be what you’re expecting.

You misunderstand your role, you misunderstand your boss’s needs, and you misunderstand yourself. Stumped? Don’t worry…I’m going into each of these reasons in depth.
