For many people, work and spirituality exist in opposition - one seems to demand what the other prohibits. Yet beneath this apparent contradiction lies a deeper unity - work is actually a spiritual practice, and how you approach your livelihood is a vital component of becoming who you are.

This first episode of The Future of Work series makes the case for a more nuanced understanding of work's role in self-knowledge. Drawing on the Seven Habits of Individuation framework, we examine why work is essential to genuine spiritual development.

In this episode we cover:

- The four modalities of consciousness and why material/financial freedom is a cornerstone for self-knowledge

- Warren Buffet's approach to wealth as an example of freedom within limitation

- Khalil Gibran's "The Prophet on Work" - capturing the essence of work as love made visible

- How AI and technological change force an encounter with meaning

- Why authentic organisations benefit from their people's self-realisation

- The role of work in the individuation process and conscious development

This series integrates Jungian psychology and idealist philosophy with practical career guidance, offering a philosophical foundation for approaching work consciously.
