Why Your Job Feels Soul-Sucking (and What to Do About It) | Rediscover Episode Four

In the fourth episode of this Rediscover mini-series, Benji and Dave dive into how play, fun, and work have been misdefined and how reclaiming their true meaning can restore your energy, creativity, and purpose. From playground rules to performance culture, this episode is both philosophical and practical, asking: What if play was never the opposite of work, but the foundation of it? We explore: • The cultural myths we inherited about play and fun • Why adult life often feels like a performance trap • The surprising difference between fun and play • The link between play and purposeful work ⸻ About the Hosts: Benji Block helps people rediscover their core values and build lives of clarity and meaning.
