What do you do [for work?]

In the first episode of Identity Work, Stephen and Adam spend 30 minutes resolving technical issues and debating if Adam is a “Novice” or “Noob” iPhone photographer… just kidding! Identity Work starts out strong with a rich discussion about how we should frame work, recorded from Dallas, Texas and Avignon, France.

Adam honestly shares his past approach to work as being “a game that is meant to be beaten by earning enough money to stop playing”.

 

We discuss cultural influences on how we view work, which shaped our career choices, leading to “successful” but unsatisfying choices.

Stephen challenges listeners to think about how they define work for themselves and Adam leaves everyone with a takeaway “homework” question to reflect on this week.
