Have you ever felt so numb at work you wonder if it’s depression—but know it’s not? In this episode, I answer a raw and honest listener letter from a high-achieving law partner who’s “bored to the back teeth.”
We dive into why career success often leads to chronic boredom, especially for smart people with a deep need for novelty and challenge. I unpack the hidden psychological toll of this emotional flatline and why it's not just something to push through.
If you’ve climbed the ladder only to feel emotionally dimmed, this one’s for you. I’ll walk you through why your clever brain is desperate for stimulation—and how to spot (and stop) the boredom spiral before it impacts everything else.
