from Flourish With Purpose Podcast With Amanda Sevilla · host Amanda Sevilla

I’ve had to ask myself “is it time for the next thing?” one too many times. In my own experience (which I chat about more in the pod), I know how real the fear and fog can be when we’re facing change. But I also know the confidence and clarity that comes from curious and deep self-reflection and asking the right questions.For today’s episode, I walk you through five questions to help you explore your job satisfaction, clarify your values, and reconnect with your sense of purpose without spiraling into overthinking. Join me as I dive into: ✨ Why it’s normal to question your job ✨ What the state of your nervous system at work means for your mental health ✨ Ways to explore shifts in your role before jumping ship ✨ The role of values alignment in long-term work-life balance ✨ A gut-check question that can reveal what you’ve been avoiding ✨ Move through the fear of disappointing others ✨ Why no decision is truly wasted. It’s all learning.I hope this episode brings you comfort in knowing that you have more options than you think, and a lot more value to your own and other people’s lives just by being your (regulated) self!The 5 questions:1. How does this job impact my nervous system and overall well-being?2. Is my current work aligned with my values and long-term vision?3. What am I afraid might happen if I leave this job?4.
