Tess Brigham

Tess Brigham Explore. Define. Become… the Person You Want to Be Are you trying to figure out who you are? Do you feel frustrated with your choices and behaviors?

Are you depressed or anxious about the path you are taking? Did you think that adulthood meant that:
• You would automatically have all the answers?
• You would immediately know who you are and who you want to be?
• Your relationships with your parents, friends and significant others would deepen and become more meaningful without any effort? No matter how prepared you think you are for entering a

dulthood, the reality of the transition can be challenging. Many choices that were influenced by your parents are now yours alone to make. My approach is to help you with a combination of life-planning skills and in-depth therapy. I don’t believe that therapy needs to last forever. I find that a short-term, strengths based approach yields wonderful results for many of my clients as they navigate their way through work and relationships. Contact me for a consultation to help you through this challenging but exciting time of personal growth and discovery.

I talk a lot about burnout on The Gen Mess with Tess, but this week’s conversation goes deeper.

This week I talk with author and recovering burnout, Amy Leneker (.leneker) about why so many high achievers burn out even after changing jobs, why workplace stress keeps repeating, and what leaders still misunderstand about joy at work.

Her research shows something important: people do not just want less stress; they need meaning, mattering, and momentum to do their best work.

“While job promotions are generally seen as net positives in a career, offering more prestigious titles and bigger paychecks to deserving employees, they can also have serious downsides. In many cases, turning down a promotion — as discomforting as that thought may be — can be a smart move.”

Everyone has had that coworker. You know the coworker who is rude to you when you’re alone but sweet as can be when your manager is in the room. The coworker who purposely “forgets” to tell you critical pieces of information, hoping to make you look incompetent. The coworker who criticizes your ideas and then takes credit for them. It can feel like a knife in the back when you realize your coworker only befriended you to gain your trust so they can take advantage of you later.
