Transitions come in many different forms – from married to divorced, from dual parent household to single parenting, from job to layoff, from job to termination, from full house to empty nester, from rewarding career to retirement. The list goes on. Today we are talking about the trap that happens when we tie our identity to our roles and what to do about it.

My career advice has a remarkable track record with adult children. Every piece has been ignored immediately, rediscovered three years later, and then presented back to me as their own idea. "Mom, I learned something at work. You should always follow up in writing." Yes, sweetheart. I believe someone mentioned that. Possibly at Thanksgiving, 2019. Possibly while you were looking at your phone. So today I'm trying a new strategy. I'm putting my advice on a podcast. Young adults won't take advice from their parents, but they'll take it from a stranger on the internet. Let's use that.

In many companies, the conversation about who moves up next takes shape in a room you're not in, built on a one-sentence impression of you that formed months ago. In this episode of The Still Space, I show how that shorthand gets written, why capable leaders get labeled "reliable" instead of "next," and the 100-day plan to change the sentence before the conversation happens. This isn't about working harder. It's about precision.

I’ve learned it is far more than that and it resurfaces in the most unsuspecting places when we don’t know how to deal with it.

I hit targets that used to feel unreachable and felt the same flat nothing I'd felt before I hit them. For a long time I assumed that meant I hadn't hit the right target yet. I just needed the next one. So I found the next one. And the flat nothing came with me. In this episode we talk about how to break that cycle.
