Does your job define who you are? And should it?

In this episode of Life Happens*, Michelle and Nick explore one of the biggest modern dilemmas: are we expecting too much from our work? Should your career provide purpose and identity—or simply fund the life you really want to live?

They unpack the pressure of finding a “dream job,” the reality of being judged by what you do for a living, and whether separating work from identity might actually lead to a happier, more balanced life.

Do you have a dream job… or a job that pays for the dream?

Plus, take the career quiz mentioned in the episode to discover what roles might suit your skills, strengths, and interests—and see how accurate it really is:

Are endless options actually making life harder—or just more confusing?

In this episode of Life Happens*, Michelle and Nick explore what it means to live in a world full of choices—especially in dating and careers.

Do dating apps expand our possibilities, or quietly make commitment harder? And what happened to the kind of chance encounters that turn into lifelong love stories?

Michelle reflects on her dating future, while Nick shares lessons (and a few entertaining stories) from his past—including his unforgettable swimming pool story.

They also dive into the pressure of today’s job market, where “a job for life” no longer exists. When everything is possible, how do you choose anything at all?

Plus: Nick puts Michelle to the test with a “dating material” quiz—and you can play along too:

Would you rather have one guaranteed good option or five uncertain great ones?

In this episode of Life Happens* (*but you can too!), hosts Michelle R Williams and Nick Hirst explore the psychology of choice and decision-making.

From choosing schools and careers to navigating everyday life decisions, they discuss whether modern life offers too many choices — and whether that freedom actually makes us happier or more anxious. They also compare today’s decision-making pressures with earlier generations, when life options were often far more limited.

Plus, you can test your own decision-making style with a quick quiz and see where you fall on the spectrum of cautious vs spontaneous decision-makers.

🎧 Listen now to explore whether more choice really leads to a better life — or simply harder decisions.
