The Brain-Based Fix for Feeling Disconnected ↓ Let’s talk about your brain for a second. When you feel lit up at work — when your ideas flow, your confidence soars, and the hours fly by — it’s not just because you’re “in the zone.” It’s because your brain is rewarding you. That rush of motivation and energy? That’s dopamine. It gets released when your brain senses you’re doing something meaningful, exciting, or purpose-driven. But when you spend your days disconnected from your core passions...

Steadiness During Volatility ↓ When the ground beneath your career starts to shift—whether it’s a company reorg, industry-wide layoffs, or economic uncertainty—it’s easy to feel like you're just trying to keep your footing. The decisions coming down from leadership seem distant. Your projects stall. The momentum you were building evaporates. Even if your job is technically secure, it’s hard to focus when the direction keeps changing. And somewhere in the blur of change, you begin to lose your...

Find Your Spark Again ↓ There’s a particular kind of restlessness that sets in when you’ve become disconnected from your core passions. You’re still showing up. You’re still doing the work.

The kind that allows you to walk into a room, own your ideas, and lead with calm, grounded clarity. Confidence isn’t about being the most outgoing person or having all the answers. It’s about trusting yourself. Trusting your perspective, your voice, your abilities. And the truth is—it’s hard to feel confident when you don’t fully understand or value what makes you...

How to Overcome Career Rust Out...Without Changing Jobs! ↓ There’s a quiet kind of burnout that no one talks about—one that doesn’t come from too much work, but too little meaning in the work you do. It’s called Rust Out—and it’s just as damaging. You show up, you do your job, you check all the boxes. But inside? You feel like you’re going through the motions. The passion that once fueled you feels distant, your strengths feel underutilized, and you start wondering: Is this all there is? Rust...

Managing Negative Thinking in Times of Uncertainty ↓ Let’s be honest—uncertainty is exhausting. Whether it’s layoffs, restructuring, or industry-wide changes, it can feel like you’re constantly bracing for impact. Your mind starts spinning: What if my role shifts? What if I lose my job? What if I’m not prepared for what’s next? You tell yourself to stay focused, but the doubt creeps in. You second-guess decisions. You feel tense in meetings, wondering if leadership knows something you don’t....
