Navigating Shame: Finding Self Worth During Career Uncertainty

WHO IS HOSTING? Ally Unger (LAC) returns to Rhize as a session host, bringing a background in both mental health and recruitment to provide thoughtful, well-rounded support for Rhize members.

WHAT ARE WE WORKING THROUGH? We’ll explore how to navigate shame around career uncertainty and stagnation. This is an attendee-driven conversation and Ally will center on what the participants want to discuss. Past sessions have covered coping strategies, building resilience, and redefining success and self-worth.

WHEN IS THE EVENT? Live on Tues., Mar. 3 and is limited to 8 members. These sessions are not recorded or transcribed to ensure a private, supportive environment for all participants.

WHY SHOULD I REGISTER AND SHOW UP? This is a rare, private space to talk honestly about the emotional toll of the job search with others who truly get it. Ally facilitates the conversation by focusing specifically on what's coming up for those in the room, so this really is an hour dedicated to your growth. If you have experienced feelings of shame or have questioned your self worth in your career journey, this session is for you.

HOW CAN I SET MYSELF UP FOR SUCCESS? This is a small-group session that will not be recorded and will be led by a mental health professional: come ready to share or at least participate in the validation of fellow members. The session is capped at 8 people and then we will move to a waitlist.
