What to Do When Your Job Pays Well but You Dread It

Do you have a job that pays well but you dread going to every day? In this episode, Light Watkins shares the spiritual perspective on what to do when the paycheck is good but your heart isn't in it, and why quitting on the spot isn't the only option. You'll hear why alignment matters as much as money when making career decisions, and what legendary producer Quincy Jones said about what happens when you focus only on getting paid. Light walks through the both/and approach: giving yourself a hard deadline, using evenings and weekends to plan a transition, and pitching a wellness initiative at work by tying it to your company's goals. He also explains why treating your current job as part of your purpose can attract better opportunities, illustrated by the story of a Whole Foods lane announcer whose presence earned him a profile in The New York Times. If you feel stuck in a job you dread, unhappy at work, or unsure whether to quit, this episode will help you find more alignment, wherever you are. Send us a text message. We'd love to hear from you!
