Series 5: Borderline in Wonderland - Emotions like storms. Love like fire. A heart that’s too big for this tiny teacup world.

E116: Curious Careerland: When You Can’t Tell What You’re “Meant” to Do

One moment you’re chasing a dream.

The next, you’re questioning if it was ever yours to begin with.

In this episode of Borderline in Wonderland, we tumble through the twists and turns of career identity crises, purpose panic, and those all-too-familiar existential spirals. Especially for folks living with BPD or deep emotional wiring, finding your “calling” can feel like trying to read a map that keeps rearranging itself.

We explore:

• The fear of choosing wrong, too late, or not at all
• The overwhelm of infinite potential colliding with paralyzing doubt
• Why careers feel personal—when maybe they were supposed to be practical
• How to separate your voice from the noise of expectation, urgency, and shame

This one’s for the wanderers of Curious Careerland. The ones who’ve felt behind, too scattered, too intense, or not enough. The ones still searching for something that feels like home.

You don’t have to “figure it all out.”

You just have to keep following what feels honest.
