Are you making career choices based on what genuinely satisfies you — or are you driven by something else?

In this episode, we explore the concept of true motivation and what it means for the work you do every day. Physician, author, and trauma specialist Gabor Maté defines true motivation as doing what satisfies you and aligns with your genuine preferences and inclinations, regardless of what people may think, as long as you're not intentionally harming others.

Many lawyers find themselves successful by every external measure and yet deeply unfulfilled. This episode explores why that happens and what we can do about it.

In this episode, you'll hear:

What "true motivation" really means — and how to know if you have it
A simple test to assess whether your work is genuinely aligned with who you are
Real stories from attorneys who made career choices for reasons other than true motivation
Why so many of us lose our connection to our own motivation — and the role childhood plays
Why this isn't about blame, and how awareness can open the door to change
How to begin honoring your true preferences, values, and desires

A reflection to sit with: What would it feel like to make a career decision based entirely on what genuinely interests and satisfies you — with no thought for what anyone else thinks?
