    In this episode, I reflect on the complexities of wanting to change pivotal moments in my life, particularly regarding a significant decision I made in 2017.

Ultimately, while I acknowledge the temptation to rethink past choices, I emphasize the importance of accepting those decisions as part of my journey that has led me to where I am today. Takeaways: 1. Reflecting on past choices can be complicated, especially when those choices have shaped who we are today. 2.

    Day 2: 30 Days, 30 Episodes - My Journey of Career Shift and Self-Realization

    Matt Gilhooly shares key lessons from his career journey, emphasizing the importance of making decisions for oneself rather than conforming to societal expectations. He reflects on how, for much of his life, he followed a traditional path—getting good grades, pursuing higher education, and climbing the corporate ladder—without considering what truly interested him. After facing challenges in his work environment, particularly with a problematic colleague he refers to as a "bulldozer," Matt realized the need to prioritize his mental well-being and take control of his career. This led him to make bold choices, like asking for a demotion to find a more fulfilling role and ultimately pursuing opportunities that scared him, such as starting a podcast. As he embarks on this month of daily episodes, he encourages listeners to choose paths that align with their true selves rather than seeking external validation. Takeaways: Experiencing challenges in the workplace can teach valuable lessons about self-advocacy. Taking a step back to focus on our mental health is essential for personal growth. Pursuing discomfort can lead to unexpected learning experiences and personal development. Making bold career decisions like asking for a demotion can reclaim your happiness. Surrounding yourself with supportive friends can transform your outlook and encourage growth.
