According to a 2018 Gallup poll, at least two out of three Americans either are not engaged or are actively disengaged from their work.  This is a big deal—especially because, for many of us, work comprises approximately a third of our waking hours. Imagine feeling disconnected and unfulfilled by something you spend one-third of your waking hours on! In fact, I’m sure it's a reality for a large portion of my listeners, so I believe this episode may be helpful.

This topic is also a very personal issue to me. Many of you know I am a latecomer to my dream job as a psychologist. I spent nearly two decades in jobs that were not my life’s work before engaging in a risky move to change careers. I am so happy I did. It is my hope that this episode will encourage you either to find more meaning in your current work or to consider looking for work you love.

My guest on this episode has spent more than 10,000 hours coaching people; a very large portion of which has been assisting people with their careers.  Mary Beth Shewan, MS, MCC (https://wholelifecoaching.com/) is an internationally renowned coach and the creator of a program called Invent Your Own Career.  We discuss the common themes and struggles around careers as well as how to increase the likelihood of feeling fulfilled in this important area of life.

So, listen in as Mary Beth and I have a lively and information-packed conversation on Fulfilment at Work.
