Side Chat: Is trauma unconsciously influencing your career choices?
Manage episode 418670347 series 2164072
You know we can’t resist a good Instagram post—and maybe even ruthlessly tearing one apart on the podcast (and having a grand time doing it)!
A friend DM’d us this reel recently from Caroline Middelsdorf, a coach and psychologist, about how your childhood trauma might be covertly influencing your career choices.
Naturally, we decided to dissect our reaction to this theory on the podcast!
So, listen in as we chat about…
- Three major career fields, and the childhood backstory you might have if you ended up in those industries
- How much credence you should give to this theory, and when it might not be impacting you
- Why feeling bored and unstimulated in your job might actually be a sign of health
This one might spark some strong opinions, one way or the other, so come leave a comment after you’ve listened to share your reaction!
