Join host Dana Skaggs and organizational researcher Craig Mattson as they dive into the pressures of the modern workplace. Using powerful metaphors like “the wave” of digital overwhelm and the “life raft” of coping strategies, they explore why remote work often feels confusing and detached. The conversation tackles the big question: “Should I quit if my job feels meaningless?” Craig reveals the four distinct ways people find purpose—from changing the world to simply surviving the day. Ultimately, they argue that in an era of constant change, your greatest skill isn’t what you do, but your ability to adapt your perspective and find meaning, even if it feels like you’re just a cup of water in an ocean.
