00:04:22The Invisible Baggage We Keep Carrying
00:06:47How Small Changes Create a Reset
이 에피소드에 관해
We like to think we can keep our personal lives separate from our working lives. But when something big happens — divorce, grief, redundancy or another major life change — it can affect how we show up at work long before we fully recognise it ourselves.
Divorce and identity coach Jonathan Burston knows this firsthand. During his own divorce, compounded by the death of his mother, Jonathan believed he was still functioning at work. Looking back, he realised he was barely surviving — and carrying uncertainty, loss and fear into his meetings, decisions and relationships at work.
Jonathan joins Lucia Knight to explore what happens when the weight of what we’ve been through starts shaping how we work — and how a difficult chapter can become an opportunity to reset rather than something we continue carrying into the future.
You’ll hear:
- Why major life events can affect our work even when we think we’re coping
- How career and identity can become intertwined
- The “invisible baggage” we can keep carrying long after something has happened
- Why a reset isn’t about pretending the past didn’t happen or trying to become who you were before
- The simple question Jonathan uses to shift attention toward what comes next
- Why meaningful change rarely begins with one enormous decision
