The Quiet Tax of Career Identity Traps
We examine how professional identity becomes a psychological trap, using the specific case of a senior engineer who left tech to preserve her sanity. This episode explores the concept of 'ego investment' in job titles and why letting go of a prestigious role is often the hardest part of avoiding burnout. We discuss the difference between what you do and who you are, offering a framework for detaching self-worth from corporate hierarchy.
