The Truth About Providing: Finding Purpose Beyond Money

I remember the day I got my biggest bonus. I should have been celebrating. Instead, I sat at my desk and felt a wave of pure, uncut dread. I realized that the more I made, the more I was trapped. I was an ATM. My family didn't need me; they needed my signature. My 'purpose' had become nothing more than a series of transactions. I was a "success" on paper, but I was realizing that being a good provider is not enough anymore. I had all the 'confidence' of a successful professional, and the soul of a prisoner of war, sliding quickly into serious burnout.
