Do you feel stuck at work? Forbes explores how to break free from past experiences that shape our present success…or lack there-of. Host Patricia Wu and guest therapist Ryan Heapy break down the article and combatting burnout on this “What’s Trending” segment.
Check Your Childhood Baggage
Many of us trudge through our careers, unaware of the emotional impact our upbringing has on our decisions. Ryan Heapy agrees with how our childhood shapes our future and uses a personal example of how his upbringing affected his first career. He also says sometimes people can turn their trauma into their greatest purpose.
Optimism May Change Your Life
The article supports dispositional optimism, which is basically believing in endless possibilities. Heapy says without optimism, there’s not a lot of belief that things will get better and just the belief that there is hope, can give you hope.
Be Intentionally Present
The article stresses how important it is to be present with your team. No more multi-tasking during meetings! By giving your full attention, you can build better communication and stronger relationships while ensuring that everyone feels heard and valued.
