About this listen
This episode discusses how people often tie their identities to their job titles, leading to emotional and mental consequences when facing job loss or career setbacks. The hosts share personal experiences and observations about the societal trend of defining oneself by profession rather than personal qualities. The conversation extends to the concept of 'invisible labor' and the emotional toll of constantly proving one’s worth at work. They highlight problematic patterns such as labeling, personalization, and emotional reasoning, which contribute to workplace anxiety and burnout. The discussion also touches on systemic issues in organizations and society, like grind culture and performance management, proposing a shift towards healthier alignment between personal well-being and professional productivity. #YouAreNotYourJob, #InvisibleLabor, #TheSlogPod, #BurnoutCulture, #GrindCulture, #MentalHealthAtWork, #JobIdentityCrisis, #WorkplaceAnxiety, #SystemicBurnout
