This episode of the Inside Job Podcast might be the most action packed yet. In under half an hour, we cover: the Foo Fighters live in concert, a subplot of The Shawshank Redemption, how Julia Roberts likes her eggs, what made Nayla ask for help, how sausage is made, disco music . . . 

Oh, and the mind-trap of being institutionalized. 

It all works, trust us. 

Institutionalization happens to all of us over the course of our life. At its core, it’s a belief system that we develop about ourselves and about the way work gets done, primarily through the existence of loud and dominant external voices. 

It can show up in what we think is important to do and how to do it. It can show up in how important we view ourselves at our companies and why we’re reluctant to leave. It shows up in our habits, our preferences, our choices, and our systems. We accept and abide by it so unconsciously that when things shift we struggle mightily to adapt to the change. 

Yes, even when we go grocery shopping. 

Give this episode a listen to uncover how you may be institutionalized, and how to become more consciously aware about your decisions, your work preferences, and even your eggs.
