Career Gems For The Journey

You Are Not Your Job: Part 2


Listen Later

It’s 2024 and we are back with brand-new content, viral topics, and fabulous guests!  

⁠Leah C. Murphy⁠ CEO of ⁠Career Gems for the Journey⁠  reflects on the last episode and goes into more detail on separating one's identity from their job.

 💎 She emphasizes that job titles, company affiliations, and compensation are temporary aspects of our careers. 

💎Thasunda Brown Duckett's quote, "Your titles are borrowed, your character is what you own," reinforces the idea that our jobs do not define us. 

💎 Prepare for the ever-changing job market by adopting a "renter's mentality." This mindset allows you to excel in your current role and smoothly transition to new opportunities. 

💎 Prioritizing well-being is key, leading to better performance and decision-making. Embrace change rather than fearing it.

In summary, remember that you are not your job. Maintain a strong sense of self beyond your professional identity.
