AI Is Replacing Jobs: How to Protect Your Identity, Mental Health & Self-Worth

AI is accelerating a shift from the employee economy to the creator economy—and it’s triggering an identity-based mental health crisis for millions of “human Doings.” Host Lisa Urbanski sits down with Chad Lefevre to unpack how job disruption, layoffs, and rapid economic change can shake self-worth, increase anxiety, and leave people feeling unprepared for what’s next. In this episode, you’ll learn: ✅ Why AI-driven job disruption creates an identity crisis (not just a career problem) ✅ How to detach self-worth from job titles, productivity, and “achievement addiction” ✅ The future-proof skills employers and leaders keep naming: creativity + critical thinking ✅ What “emotional sobriety” means—and how it builds emotional resilience under pressure ✅ How leaders can support teams through change with empathy and conscious leadership ✅ Practical steps to start personal development now (before disruption hits) 🌐 Learn more about Chad http://tmicglobal.com/ | http://chadlefevre.com/ 📲 Follow him on socials YouTubes: https://www.youtube.com/@TMICglobal https://www.youtube.com/@realchadlefevre LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chadlefevre/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/therealchadlefevre/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/chadlefevre.bsky.social Learn more about your ad choices.
