Career Wounds - by Mandy Tang (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

From career coach and healer Mandy Tang, a road map to healing trauma and nervous system burnout within the context of our careers by naming our unhealthy patterns, releasing negative energy, and stepping into our power.

It is no secret that corporate work culture has dramatically changed in the past five years. Amid layoffs, hiring freezes, and employment gaps, smart, college-educated workers are facing unprecedented challenges in the job market. Enter Career Wounds from career coach and holistic healer Mandy Tang, who healed her own career wounds and now teaches others to do the same. She understands the growing number of corporate workers who are longing to experience joy, wholeness, and authenticity at work. This approachable book is for all those who are burned-out, stressed-out, dealing with a toxic boss, struggling to set boundaries at work, or otherwise seeking refuge from the storms of corporate America. Through journal prompts and reflection exercises, it enables readers to release the pains of workplace trauma by:

- recognizing the replication of harmful patterns
- using shamanic frameworks to free themselves of poisonous workplace narratives that are no longer serving them
- grieving unlived dreams, letting go of self-blame, and keeping an open heart
- creating their own closure by rewriting their story
- discovering their unique medicine and becoming the architects of their new relationship to work

Career Wounds offers a beacon of support from an author who has not only helped thousands in similar situations but used to be there herself.
