Stephen felt unfulfilled in his job as an information technology (IT) professional. He made good money, but he didn’t feel personally or emotionally engaged. Stephen wanted to have more flexible hours so he could spend more time with his young children. He wanted to prioritize his family. He wanted to feel like he was valued at work, not just as a tech wizard, but as a real person. He felt like his authentic self was getting lost in the demands and responsibilities of his IT job. But change felt really scary. What if he quit his job and couldn’t get another one? How would he know if his next job would make him unhappy as well?
