A DEEPER AND ENJOYABLE UNDERSTANDING OF WORK LIFE (BY FABLE)

Laura Schroeder — May 31, 2023

I was gifted a copy of 'Is This a Lousy Job or Is It Me?' by a dear friend and while I typically read shorter life/ work balance or health related articles/ stories, I simply could not put this one down. Every human has a story and as Terri brilliantly shares her work life stories - both the dream-like and the difficult. So much so that you can't help but relate.

Her By FABLE model ushers the reader through a series of life long work challenges and triumphs that leaves the reader with a sense of understanding their own struggles while encouraging them with a 'light at the end' of the proverbial tunnel. It simply puts the power back in the readers' hands to examine their own stories and character/ value set built along their career path and how it interacts with all aspects of work. To say life is a journey is cliché, but to read, understand and often times relate to another person's stories is a gift - a gift that keeps on giving. Both easy to read and enjoyable and I would highly suggest!
