Inside Job – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Inspiration can be found anywhere and, if you're Eric, that can even include a skeleton in your front yard.

A lot of us believe we're supposed to feel thrilled, excited, energized, and inspired by our work. While it would be great if that were true all the time, we tend to panic in the moments when it feels like our inspiration in our work is drying up.

So, in this episode that was recorded shortly before Halloween, we're exploring what we refer to as the inspiration paradox by discussing what it looks like to lose inspiration in the workplace, whether or not we need to feel inspired in order to be productive, what we can do about a lack of inspiration, and more.

Not a single one of us hasn't made a mistake in the workplace. We've said the wrong thing to the wrong person. We've delayed something inadvertently, and it had big consequences for our team.

Knowing these mistakes won't be our last, we thought it would be a good idea to explore how we can handle the tension between acknowledging our humanity and the likelihood that each one of us will make mistakes of consequence in our careers and lives and the need to be accountable.

We'd love to hear from you.

In today's conversation, we explore a listener question about how much stress is enough stress, how we distinguish between 'regular' stress and toxic stress, and how much we're responsible for our own experience of stress.

When we recognize that stress is not inherently problematic, we can take time to reflect on the nature of the stress we're feeling and decide how we want to navigate it both internally and externally.

This is a conversation about boundaries, self-care, self-trust, and asking for help when we need it.

Have you heard about quiet quitting? 

Almost everyone has, so we're jumping into the conversation this week to explore what this term really means, what it's not, whether it's inevitable, and what other options we have.

Quiet quitting isn't just a phenomenon of fed-up, overworked professionals with scope-creep and unreasonable workloads, suffering under unfair working conditions, and burnout finally standing up for themselves.

Turns out, quiet quitting has a lot to do with a chance to explore clarity, appreciation, and communication.

We'd love to hear from you.

This week on the podcast we explore what it means to get our shit together, why that experience is different for each one of us, and how reframing the concept can make a world of difference.

If we can pause and discern what's really happening, we may be able to address what's hurting or "feeling off".

Listen in this week as we explore and reflect on what it means to "have your shit together" and ways to take action towards shifting to measuring sticks that align with our values.

We'd love to hear from you.

While it can feel like additional self-inflicted punishment during hard times, guilt can be clarifying, a reminder of our values, or where we've been inconsistent. What might guilt be protecting us from? We offer insights to help decipher the difference between guilt and discomfort and choose the next right step that's best for us and those we work with.

We open today's show by sharing what's exciting us right now including the Bad Sisters series, baseball playoffs, and new music from a host of bands including Blink 182, Marcus Mumford, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. We even connect The Peppers back to The Good Place.

We'd love to hear from you.

Today on the podcast we explore how to build a better relationship with work and how our inside work can give us the perspective, accountability, and permission to make that relationship even better.

We kick things off by discussing the various types of "metric tons" we can use as yardsticks for measuring our experience of work before moving into the core of our conversation: Our relationship with work.  We also discuss whether leaving one situation to go to another situation is really the way to improve the way we relate to our work.

Use the questions we provide to assess the health of your relationship by understanding what you need from a healthy relationship with work, and use yourself as a barometer to measure whether you are able to be your fullest self in the relationship you currently have with work.
