Hello Monday By Linkedin

In the final installment of our Good Jobs series, Jessi meets with journalist Simone Stolzoff, author of the new book, The Good Enough Job: Reclaiming Life From Work. Simone, who goes by Simo, wants to flip the script on good jobs entirely. Instead of putting all our energy into work and shoehorning our life into the margins, he says our work lives should give us plenty of time to look for meaning outside of our jobs.  The conversation between Simo and Jessi explores the decline of community organizations and the increasing reliance on the workplace for meaning and belonging. Simo pushes back on various workplace myths and encourages listeners to critically assess these beliefs and find the intersection between their personal values and market values. The episode concludes with actionable insights on how to reframe work's role in our lives, including creating boundaries to prioritize non-work activities and cultivating sources of identity and meaning outside of the job.
