Carrie Jones, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LifeVision Counseling, LLC
Today's jobs are demanding and can feel never ending. Metrics, productivity, and the constant increase of expectations can lead you to feel stressed, overwhelmed, and burned out. You might also feel locked into your job, especially after being in the same role or with the same company for a long period of time. Asking about the type of work you do can be one of the first questions people ask when they meet you. So, it makes sense that a career can end up feeling like a major part of your identity and who you are. Job stress and trauma are becoming more common and can feel awful. But, you are bigger than your job. It's time to explore yourself. Whether it includes finding ways to get more enjoyment from your current position and managing stress differently or developing the courage to make a jump to something new, you don't have to figure it out alone.
