Why You’re Unhappy at Work (It’s Not What You Think)
Mar 28, 2025
So many people blame their unhappiness at work on the job title, boss, or hours—but beneath it all is something deeper: values misalignment.
If you value creativity and are in a repetitive task job—you’ll feel stifled. If you value growth but your role offers no progression—you’ll disengage.
The job might not be bad. It’s just not for you.
Ask Yourself:
-
Does this job honor my top 3 values?
-
What values do I feel I have to suppress at work?
When clients discover this, they often make empowered shifts—whether that’s asking for new responsibilities, pursuing passion projects, or pivoting careers entirely.
