When the work looks right from the outside but doesn’t feel right.
- The Golden Cage: good money and status, but you feel empty and unfulfilled at work.
- No Boundaries: sixty-hour weeks, unable to say no, on a fast track to burnout.
- Is This It?: you’ve ticked every box (degree, job, house, partner) and still feel unsatisfied.
- Drifting: plenty of energy but no roadmap, and the years keep slipping by.
