The Discovery of Self Through Work

Most people don't realize that work is actually a subconscious laboratory for the self. We rarely clock in with the intention of "finding ourselves," yet the daily grind, the friction of high-stakes projects and the rhythm of the hustle, quietly carves out who we are long before we realise we’re looking.Joining me to unpack this is my former colleague Dan Bulteel, a global social media marketing powerhouse and entrepreneur. Dan has held industry-defining roles at TikTok and Adidas, and is now the CEO of MEET-TING, an AI-driven venture redefining how we manage our most precious resource. Time.Today, we explore how our professional journeys serve as a mirror to our internal worlds, defining our identity often without us knowing it. We’ll discuss why work plays such a pivotal role in this self-discovery and how the evolution of our "professional self" ultimately ripples out to transform the lives and worlds of everyone around us.*Disclaimer: Views and opinions expressed in this podcast are entirely my own and do not represent or connect to my employer.
