Cait sits down with Suzy Welch, creator of the Values Bridge and author of Becoming You, to explore why so much burnout at work stems from misalignment rather than effort. Cait shares the realization that shifted her path: she built thriving one-on-one practices and helped thousands, yet still felt drained because her core drive for broad impact did not match the intimate service model she was operating in. How often do we mistake competence for alignment? How often do we stay loyal to workplace values that quietly clash with our own? Suzy breaks down why this disconnect is so common. We edit our values to look acceptable within our workplace culture or family system. We amplify what sounds admirable and silence what feels risky to admit. The Values Bridge reveals what actually motivates you and highlights the gap between your personal values at work and the life you are living. You can care deeply about people without centering your identity around caretaking. You can hold strong leadership values without organizing your life around constant achievement. Values are not moral badges. They are choices about how you want to direct your time and energy. The conversation also moves beyond values into natural aptitudes and economically viable interests. What does your brain do with ease? What kinds of roles exist outside the narrow paths most of us were shown? When your workplace values, your wiring, and real-world opportunity line up, energy builds instead of drains. When they do not, burnout at work follows. The real question becomes this: are you living in alignment with your own values, or are you performing someone else’s version of success?
