The Great Millennial Career Crisis (And What To Do About It)

We were told there was a “success” formula:

Go to college.→ Get a good job.→ Work hard.→ Climb the ladder.→ Be successful.

But what happens when you do all of that... and still feel stuck?

In this episode of The Work Hotline, Sho Dewan (your Work Hype Man, ex-recruiter, and founder of @workhap) dives into what many millennials are quietly experiencing right now: burnout, career confusion, and the realization that the traditional career path no longer works the way it used to. In this episode we talked about:

- Why millennials are experiencing record burnout

- Why success feels further away despite working harder

- How layoffs changed the relationship between workers and employers

- Why career pivots are becoming normal

- How to redefine success on your own terms
