Have you ever wondered who you'd be without your job title?
In this special conversation I had with my good friend and tech Founder, Jason Weaver, we discussed one of the biggest challenges facing executives, founders, and high-level professionals today: separating your identity from your position.
Many successful people spend years building careers, leading teams, and climbing the corporate ladder. But what happens when the company is acquired, the role disappears, or you decide you're ready for something more?
The fear isn't always about money.
Often, it's about discovering your value outside the title you've carried for years.
In this short clip, we explore:
✅ Why executives struggle with career transitions ✅ The growing appeal of fractional consulting and independent work ✅ How AI and changing business landscapes are reshaping careers ✅ Why even successful CEOs experience self-doubt ✅ The difference between being employable and being valuable ✅ How to uncover your true value beyond your title
If you've ever felt like you're built for something more, this conversation is for you.
