In today's mini-episode, I want to share my reflections on my own career identity, how I might need to rewrite my own narrative to embrace change.

This episode was inspired by the book "Adaptation Advantage: Let Go, Learn Fast and Thrive in the Future of work" written by Heather McGowan and Chris Shipley.

Selected one of the top 30 Business books for 2021 and the most downloaded book in December 2020.

As described by Soundview Book Summary, “The Adaptation Advantage explains the profound changes happening in the world of work and posits the solution: new ways to think about careers that detach our sense of pride and personal identity from our job title and connect it to our sense of purpose.” McGowan believes this is the key to unlocking human potential through creating self-propelled lifelong learners.
