The Misalignment Problem: When Your Job and Your Heart Don’t Match
The consequences of this misalignment can be serious. A 2022 report from McKinsey revealed that American workers interested in self-employment options have increased by 27% in the last decade. This surge reflects a growing desire for greater autonomy and purpose, elements often missing in traditional employment settings.
When your daily work doesn’t connect with your deeper values and goals, you might experience:
- Chronic stress and burnout
- Sunday night anxiety about the upcoming workweek
- A persistent feeling that something is missing
- Questioning if this is “all there is” to your career
These feelings aren’t just uncomfortable – they signal that something important needs to change.
