Finding the right career path can be critical for our mental health

In counseling work, I’ve seen many folks who are unhappy in their work domain. Work is often a large part in one’s life, so getting it right is important isn’t it?

So how can we increase our chances of “getting it right”?

It’s important to explore and clarify our values around career and use that as a guide.

If our work/career is in line with our values, we are more likely to be “grittier” and have ongoing motivation to move forward despite the challenges that will inevitably come our way.
