Sometimes work stress is about environmental factors that are out of your control. It’s difficult to feel out of control, but important to remember that the poor economy, or a change in the law is not about you failing.
I often notice that work stress turns into a bigger problem when it presses familiar buttons around your issues. We’ve all got things that we’re more sensitive about; from trust issues to feeling unworthy, none of us escape having a few of these issues.
Whilst simple stress is relatively straightforward to overcome, more complicated work stress can be about facing a part of you that needs addressing.
