Do you often find yourself thinking things at work should be different, but feel powerless to create change?

In this episode, I dive into the common thought pattern of believing things should be different - whether it's your executive, your pay, your colleagues, or other aspects of your job. 

While this mindset may seem innocent on the surface, it can actually lead to disempowerment and powerlessness, rather than positive change. I explain how examining these thoughts and taking intentional action is the key to advocating for yourself and creating the work life you desire.

In this episode, you will discover:
- How “shoulding” can compound your suffering and hold you back
- One key mindset shift you can make to improve how you’re feeling & help you make intentional choices
- Strategies for leveraging your "should" thoughts to create empowering change
