NEW EPISODE: You Don’t Have to Quit to Love Your Job

Hey, y’all,

Let me just say this: if you’ve ever felt stuck, burnt out, or just plain meh about your job… this episode is about to change everything.

You don’t have to quit your job, switch careers, or move to a mountaintop to feel more joy and purpose at work. I’m telling you—sometimes the biggest change starts in your mindset, not your résumé.

This week on The Kim Gravel Show, I sat down with the brilliant Bree Groff, a change expert and author of Today Was Fun: A Book About Work. She’s sharing real, doable ways to actually enjoy your job—even if nothing else around you changes.

This episode is packed with eye-opening ideas, laugh-out-loud moments, and straight-up truth bombs that might just flip the way you see your 9-to-5.

Bring Your Full Self to Work
Bree reminds us that “your brain works, whether you're wearing a suit or stretchy pants.” You don’t need to perform or wear a business mask—showing up as your authentic self fosters creativity and makes work feel more meaningful.

Build a Cozy, Not Corporate, Team
Forget cold conference rooms and forced small talk. Bree shares how creating a warm, connected culture—built on trust and authenticity—far outshines trendy perks like ping-pong tables or fancy coffee bars.

Try a ‘Do Nothing Day’
This one’s a game-changer. Bree suggests setting aside an entire day to simply think, dream, and explore ideas. No meetings. No to-do lists. Just space to recharge your creative energy and rethink what productivity really means.

Life, Loss & Rethinking the Grind
Bree opens up about caring for her mother—and how it made her reevaluate the “live for the weekend” mindset. Her story will inspire you to take a fresh look at your calendar and your priorities.

So if you’re looking for more purpose, more joy, and maybe even a little fun in your workweek—this episode is for you.
