You’re not broken because your last few jobs haven’t worked.
You’re not flaky because you’re already thinking about leaving… again.
You’re not “bad at work” because your current role feels like slogging through wet cement.

You might just be a really great plant… in the wrong environment.

In this episode, I’m sharing my “humans as plants” framework to help you figure out whether the problem is you or the job, how to understand what kind of environment you actually thrive in, and how to start looking for roles that are a match for your nervous system, your ambition, and your brain.

If you’ve ever thought, “Maybe I just got lucky before and I’m actually not that good,” this one is for you.

🎯 In this episode we riff on:

↠ Why a string of “bad jobs” doesn’t mean you’re a bad employee

↠ The “humans as plants” framework and what it reveals about job fit

↠ How the wrong environment quietly erodes your confidence and performance

↠ My own story of coming back from maternity leave and suddenly feeling like a failure

↠ Specific questions to ask yourself about company size, stage, culture, sales cycle, and mission

↠ How to audit your past managers (best and worst) to decode your “plant care instructions.”

↠ What your brain’s ARAS filter is and how to use it to actually find better opportunities

↠ How to decide if you should reshape your current role or start planning an exit

↠ Why it’s okay if this job is not a fit and what to do next without burning everything down
