Episode 36: Breaking Through Entitlement: Strategies for Personal Growth and Career Transition

Ever felt like you deserved the world but it just wasn't giving you what you wanted? That's entitlement knocking at your door, and on Full Circle with Shawn, we're not just answering—it's time for a full-blown interrogation. We're getting to the root of how entitlement can sneak into our lives, obstructing personal growth and sowing discord, and I'm here to guide you through strategies to dismantle this invisible barrier. By the end of our discussion, you'll be equipped with the tools for fostering gratitude, setting realistic goals, and seeking out the kind of feedback that sparks true self-improvement. Plus, we'll unravel the complex threads that distinguish healthy confidence from toxic entitlement with the help of insightful personality assessments like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.

Transitioning careers—especially between the wild world of startups and the structured realm of corporate life—can feel like jumping between planets. But it's not a distress signal; it's a savvy navigation toward alignment with your personal ethos and professional aspirations. In this episode, I'll share my own experiences and insights on how to make these transitions as smooth as possible, whether you're donning many hats in a startup or seeking work-life balance in a corporate gig. We'll also dive into resources like John Townsend's "The Entitlement Cure," which offers a beacon of guidance for maintaining a sense of self-worth without tipping over into entitlement. So tighten your seatbelts; we're on a course to find career fulfillment that resonates with who you are and what you value.
