Good morning, ,
This week’s Unstuck Career podcast features Peter Tighe, a leader who left a successful startup to follow his values—and is now on a mission to humanize the workplace.
Here’s what stood out for me:
- Leaving Comfort for Alignment: Peter walked away from both a dream role and a traditional “safe” job when they no longer fit his values. His biggest lesson? Don’t let fear dictate your decisions.
- Shadow Work in Leadership: Peter introduced the concept of shadow work—being honest about the parts of ourselves we try to hide or ignore—and how it can transform how we lead and work together.
- Policy vs People: It's important to treat employees like actual humans, not just “bodies.” The best workplaces recognize life happens—sometimes flexibility means more than policy.
- Run Toward the Fear: Like the buffalo facing a storm, face your fears head-on for real personal and professional growth.
Remember, the path out of “stuck” is usually through, not around. If this episode speaks to you, forward it to someone who needs a nudge.
