Description

Do you have to hurt in order to grow? Eric’s experience with “trauma with a lowercase T” during a recent race kicks off our conversation about how to get outside our comfort zones in a way that is good and constructive as opposed to causing us to always feel unsatisfied or stressed. Pushing yourself to try new things, gain new skills, and grow in various other ways isn’t a bad thing. However, it can quickly start doing more harm than good. So, how do you know where the line is? How do you know when discomfort equals growth and when it crosses into the territory of “trauma with a lowercase T”? Take a listen to this week’s episode to hear how we handle these types of situations when they come up in our own lives and in our work with our clients. Listen in and join the discussion about waiting on LinkedIn (Eric | Nayla). Inside Job is brought to you by Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson.

We’re Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson, and we love to talk about the intersection of life and work. Why? Most of us will spend more hours of our life working than doing anything else. The relationship we have with work, and the way we make meaning of our time and experience there, serves as a great platform to explore how we show up to the rest of our lives: relationships, family and parenting, our health, our hobbies and interests, and our general attitude towards the human experience. With insights and observations pulled from our leadership and career coaching, teaching and consulting work, as well as the most relevant research across fields, we’ll talk about the ideas that really impact how you experience work – and your life – and actionable strategies to make work work for you, from the inside out.
