    Feeling stuck in your career? Here’s how to get back on track.

    In this episode of Workaholic, I take you on a roadside-rescue tour for your work life— starting with that sinking feeling of being lost in the middle of nowhere. We'll discuss The three warning lights: Promotion Plateau, Income Flatline, and Purpose Drift—why they show up and how they quietly drain motivation. The hidden price of staying stuck: disengagement that bleeds ≈ $1.9 trillion from businesses each year and the mental-health spiral that follows. A breakthrough on Kyoto’s Torii trail: Kiko’s moment beneath Fushimi Inari’s bright gates and the note-scribbling flight that birthed a way out. The G.A.T.E. Framework: four crisp moves—Get away from autopilot, Audit your roles, Talk to yourself on paper, and Embed one change—that turn clarity into momentum with just one day, one list, two pages, and one weekly habit. If you’ve spent five years wearing the same mid-level title, watched your raise shrink under inflation, or wondered why your work still matters, this is your map out of the wilderness.

    The money-making strategy no one talks about

    What really creates wealth: your network, your IQ, or sheer grit? In this episode, we unpack the one factor almost everyone overlooks—money is imaginary. We’ll explore: Why your internal money narratives hold you back. If you believe “I’ll never have enough” or “Rich people are greedy,” you’ll unconsciously sabotage your own success. Learn how to spot, challenge, and rewrite those stories. How to see money as a neutral tool rather than a status symbol. When you shift to an abundance lens, decisions become opportunity-driven instead of fear-driven. Why investing in high-leverage skills and social capital beats any savings account. Skills and networks compound over time, opening doors that cash alone cannot. I share concrete actions to transform your money mindset: keep a “money thoughts” log, reframe scarcity triggers with an abundance mantra, and dedicate focused time to building a high-leverage skill or relationship each week. This episode is for those who want to change their relationship with money so it becomes a tool that works for you—rather than a source of anxiety. Tune in and discover how the story in your head can either trap you or set you free.
