Stop looking for a job you love. Start looking for one you think is fun.
For this week’s episode of our podcast, Lavin Voices, we sat down with Bree Groff: in-demand workplace consultant for companies like Microsoft and Pfizer, and author of Today Was Fun: A Book About Work (Seriously). In this clip, she argues that “do what you love” is too high a bar for most of us: it promotes overwork and makes us feel bad about ourselves, which is why we should instead look at work as a “nice way to spend our days on the planet.”
Bree is the author of Today Was Fun, which Oliver Burkeman (Four Thousand Weeks) calls "exuberant, practical, inspiring, and necessary." She's a dynamic, funny, and down-to-earth keynote speaker whose talks show us not only that great Mondays are possible, but also how to achieve them.
