S10 E7: Proof Your Job Is Rewriting Your Personality in Real Time with Jessie Stettin
Workplace culture rewires us in ways that could take a whole lifetime to understand.
It shapes our identity, confidence, authority issues, communication style, and even how we show up outside of work without realizing it!
And Jessie Stettin and I go there: your real life shows up at work too, influencing how you lead, handle conflict, and how you interpret every “quick chat” from your boss.
Who would have thought that things you did as a child still influence your work identity in such sneaky ways???
Culture is this invisible exchange constantly happening in both directions, shaping you while you’re shaping it…whether you signed up for it or not.
