Life in Paradise on a Shoestring

Change, Work, Jobs, Money or Your Life? August Book Review Episode

Dawn Fleming Season 5 Episode 137

Ever get FIRED from a Job? Do You Like Change? Have you ever been frustrated by a job search? In this episode Dawn shares her story of getting a blind-sided firing at a law firm - which turned out to be the last job she ever had.  In this book review episode Dawn discusses three books about the important and timely topics facing Mid-lifers today: Change, Work, Jobs, Money and Living a Good Life. 

First, Who Moved My Cheese?  is  a timeless business classic book that utilizes a simple parable to reveal insightful and profound truths about dealing with change so that you can enjoy less stress and more success in your work and in your life.

Next, in Bait & Switch: The (Futile) Pursuit of the American Dream Barbara Ehrenreich goes undercover as a job seeker to highlight the professional people (like us!) who did  everything right—we got our college degrees, developed marketable skills, and built up impressive résumés—yet we have become repeatedly vulnerable to financial devastation, and not simply due to the vagaries of the business cycle.The social compact has changed, and yet many people are still playing by the old rules...

Finally, for or over twenty-five years, Your Money or Your Life has been considered THE go-to book for taking back your life by changing your relationship with money. Hundreds of thousands of people have followed the nine-step program outlined in the book, to live more deliberately and meaningfully.
