Ever feel like work has lost its spark—or wonder if your 9–5 has any meaning at all? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re joined by award-winning journalist and workplace expert Jennifer Moss, author of Why Are We Here?, to unpack what she calls a collective workplace crisis. We explore why so many people feel hopeless or disengaged at work—and what you can do about it, even if you’re not ready to change jobs. You’ll learn:

• Why burnout and disengagement are symptoms of a bigger issue—and how to address the root cause
• How to redesign your current role to feel more fulfilling (without a major career change)
• Small, science-backed habits that can reignite your sense of purpose and hope at work
