We’re All Just Out Here Freelancing Our Personalities

How identity is redefining careers and work culture.
By 2030, more than half the workforce may be self-employed—and job titles just aren’t cutting it anymore. In this episode, professional identity expert Dr. Sarabeth Berk Bickerton joins us to explore the rise of hybrid careers, the death of “career fit,” and why understanding how you want to be seen, known, and valued is the new key to work that matters. We dig into how organizations are struggling to define roles that match today’s multidimensional talent, and what leaders must do to attract and retain the people who no longer fit into a single box.
If your resume feels like it’s lying—or your job title doesn’t quite capture you—this one’s for you.
We cover:
- What a “professional identity crisis” really looks like
- Why hybridity beats specialization in today’s world of work
- The three levels of career belonging
- How HR can ditch outdated job descriptions and actually hire for who people are
