On this week's Career Therapy Podcast (e.122), we sit down with Shelly Smith, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Co-founder of Good Human Work. Shelly’s mission is to combine human connection with therapy strategies to improve peoples’ personal and professional lives.
Together, we discuss the long-term impact of remote work on our mental health and what you can do to build and maintain relationships without going into the office. We contemplate the future of Artificial Intelligence and how it will impact human connection when it comes to the job search, therapy, and our social environment.
And finally, we dig into how societal values have shifted from the community to the individual and how living in an isolation bubble can lead to disastrous outcomes, and what you can do about it.
