Episode 2147:
Kathy Robinson explains why leaving a long-time career so often brings on grief, and why that grief is so easy to miss. She walks through the signs of identity loss, from confusion about purpose to trouble focusing and a general feeling of fog, and why our work becomes such a large part of how we define ourselves. She then offers a six-step roadmap for acknowledging the feelings, staying connected to others, and rebuilding a sense of self beyond the job.

Quotes to ponder:
"Our work is often a major part of our identity. It's how we define ourselves, how we make a living, and how we contribute to society."
"Identity loss is a natural reaction to change and it's a sign that you're growing and evolving."
"The best way through this type of grief is finding new ways to define yourself beyond your career."
