Episode 48

You are not your job (Summer Shorts)

Welcome to the summer version of Stories for the future - my Summer shorts.

Today I am talking about how clinging to our work identities might slow us down when making (or thinking about making) a career transition.
I have my own vivid memory of this and how it was one of my biggest struggles even after I realized I wanted a change.

I now use my mental image of my work identity being a book I can put up on a shelf and take down whenever I need it. Try it for yourself and see if it opens up new and exciting opportunities!

Veslemøy Klavenes-Berge

Geophysicist by formal education, with a background within mobile satellite communication and the oil and gas industry. I did a 180 degree pivot in my career in 2016 and have since then focused all my energy and time to explore how we can have the optimal combination of the three pillars;
a good life - an interesting job - a healthy planet.
I have a strong sense of urgency when it comes to the huge challenges we are facing in the years to come, especially when it comes to climate change, but I strongly believe in the potential in people to step up and do the work when it is really needed.
That time is now.
