So, the thrill of your new job is wearing off and you’re feeling unmotivated at work. That might show up as procrastinating on that project you were assigned, skipping meetings, or maybe even daydreaming about quitting. What can you do about it?

This week we’re talking about how motivation ebbs and flows at work We’ll learn where motivation at work comes from, what a lack of it means, and what your relationship with it might look like throughout your career.

Leadership coach, author, and podcast host Muriel Wilkins has a lot of experience coaching her clients through career challenges when their motivation is faltering. She does that at the executive level, but she also understands a lot about why motivation can come and go throughout your career, including at the very beginning.

Muriel helps host Elainy Mata understand that feeling unmotivated early in your career can actually be an opportunity to figure out what motivates you—and what doesn’t. Plus, Muriel offers listeners advice about their motivation challenges.
