In this episode of JUNG ON PURPOSE, Debra & Dr. Rob Maldonado explore the intersection of purpose and career. They discuss how many individuals struggle to find fulfillment in their jobs and the importance of discovering one’s inner purpose.
If you want to become a life coach and wonder how you can help others, listen to our recent JUNG ON PURPOSE podcast episode (previously named Soul Sessions) to explore how our unique Jungian coaching model is the future of coaching.
The career we chose as young adults often becomes the career that gives us the least satisfaction. The reason this happens is because when we are younger, we are choosing careers based on our Persona or conditioned personality. Influenced by others and needing acceptance from the world often leads us to careers that may seem successful on the outside, but leave us feeling unfulfilled inside.
While it feels like a dark night of the soul, when that nudging emerges, that call for more, it is the greatest opportunity.
You don’t need to judge those early choices or even reject them. They are a part of your story. Just know, your story doesn’t end there.
If we dropped labels and titles of what a career has given us, what is left unexpressed?
In this week’s podcast episode of JUNG ON PURPOSE (formerly Soul Sessions), we explore the intersection of purpose and career.
Find out what factors influence career choices, including the concept of the persona versus true purpose, and how to face the challenges of leaving a comfortable job for a more fulfilling path. We emphasize the significance of listening to one’s inner voice, the traps of financial security and the sacrifices necessary to pursue dreams. The episode concludes with reflections on life choices and the encouragement that it’s never too late to start anew.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- How true purpose is more than just a job or profession
- Insights into how personal experiences and challenges lead to finding one’s true calling
- The pressures of societal norms and how they can mask our true desires
- Tips and personal stories on transitioning from a conventional career to a purpose-driven life
