Management consultants often grapple with the challenge of articulating what they do while simultaneously questioning if what they do truly matters. Watch this episode for 6 takeaways you need to know about meaning and purpose in consulting. We Discuss: What do consultants even do? Why do people struggle to explain what consultants do? Is it enough to just be doing it for the money? Are consultants who claim to be purely focused on delivering value being genuine? Why do some consultants get stuck in unfulfilling roles? How can consultants maintain perspective and avoid getting lost in the 'consulting vortex'? Why do those who leave consulting ('out' in 'up or out') often end up happier? Key Highlights: Consultants often struggle to explain what they do, as evidenced by a particular Reddit post. This leads to deeper questions about professional identity and purpose. (00:02:45) Initial responses to "what do consultants do?" tend to be either overly generic or unnecessarily complex, highlighting a broader communication challenge in the industry. (00:02:59) Consulting roles span a wide spectrum - from hiring smart individuals as "warm bodies" to bringing in entire teams for specific strategic outcomes, making it difficult to provide a simple definition. (00:07:24) Many consultants start their careers focused on monetary gains, but later struggle with questions of purpose and value, leading to existential crises. (00:13:50) Early-career consultants often chase financial rewards, but this motivation evolves as they advance, forcing them to choose between constant progression and work-life balance. (00:18:44) Consulting work can be highly abstract compared to tangible professions (like construction), making it harder to see concrete results and feel fulfilled. (00:33:26) The conversation addresses the "up or out" culture in consulting and how some people who leave ("out") often end up happier than those who keep pursuing advancement ("up"). (00:44:36) Emphasis on the importance of daily reflection and journaling to maintain perspective and avoid getting lost in the consulting "vortex." (00:37:28) Modern work culture has internalized destructive motivations, making people push themselves beyond healthy limits ("hustle culture"). (00:41:06) The conversation touches on "hedonic adaptation" - the constant moving of goalposts for success and happiness in consulting careers. (00:43:07) Many who exit the traditional consulting career path often find more happiness, though they couldn't see this while still "on the ride." (00:45:18) 6 Takeaways: Difficulty explaining consulting roles often reveals deeper career doubts and questions of purpose. The broad range of consulting work makes it hard to define succinctly, leading to oversimplified or overcomplicated descriptions. Unlike tangible professions, consulting's abstract nature can leave practitioners feeling disconnected and unfulfilled. Starting careers for money without reflection leads to endless goal-shifting and diminishing satisfaction. The "up or out" culture traps many in unfulfilling paths, while those who leave often find unexpected happiness. Modern consulting culture has internalized self-destructive behaviors as necessary for success.

In the second part of our conversation on ageing and dependence, we think about how secular society has tried to ameliorate the crisis of isolated older people with technological solutions. Can the smart home or robotics really save us from having to care for our elders ourselves? And if this isn't the whole answer, what does the Church have to bring to the table? How can we as believers plausibly offer up the countercultural idea of embracing dependence in old age and indeed at every stage of life, and make it real through practical service?

Today is a conversation I've been wanting to have with you all for a while. It's something that for the high-achieving accomplished people who have come into my practice for the last 13 years have been struggling with. It's largely unnamed and unrecognized, and unless you really dig deep into understanding yourself and understanding what you're thinking, why you're thinking what you're thinking, you might miss this, so I wanna bring this forward, and it's about existential angst. I don't even like that word angst, but I think that does a pretty good job of describing what's been going on for a lot of high achievers, especially now since 2020, when the world shut down and we were sent home to work and figure out our lives in a very different way than we have in the past. A lot of people took a look around and started asking questions that they've never asked before or never paid attention to when they were asking those questions, questions like, Is this all there is? What am I meant for? What's the purpose of all of this? Is there even a point to me being alive and what about this work I'm doing? Does it even make a difference in the world? And those are some of the questions that arise when somebody's in an existential crossroads— it can tip into angst, it can tip into anxiety, it can even tip into existential depression.

Coffee. It's what has been keeping me warm since the weather took a sharp downward turn vis a vis the mercury this January. As such, I offer for you 2 caffeinated poems from my first book of poetry that touch on or directly address the beverage itself. "Existential Angst & Espresso" sprang from an empty chalkboard meant to tell us who was pulling our shots and adding our sugary flavored syrups that day. "Coffee: Good for the Soul" is a brief ode to the beverage itself - not the last I have written! No, much like snow, it would seem, I have more to say about my favorite warm bean water. In closing, I'll say that coffee in various forms has touched my life over the years, as I'm sure it has for many of you. But this is a discussion for another time - and perhaps a poem of it's own. For now, You know the drill: I want to hear what you think of the podcast, whether it's a specific poem or the format, or whatever's on your mind!

Existential angst

The New Pilgrim’s Progress is a modern retelling of John Bunyan’s 17th century classic “Pilgrim’s Progress.” It is an allegorical pilgrimage through the landscape of 21st century American spirituality.In this first chapter Seeker decides to leave his home in the Shadowlands. He meets Campus Crusader on his university campus. The evangelist instructs him to begin his journey by entering through a gate illuminated by lamppost, which strangely resembles the one at the boundary of Narnia. Along the way he meets Tolerant and Intolerant and falls into the Bog of Existential Angst from which he is rescued by Prozac. He meets Psychologist who directs him to the Town of Therapy where he stays for a while before continuing his journey.

Patterned after John Bunyan’s 17th century classic “Pilgrim’s Progress,” The New Pilgrim’s Progress is an allegorical pilgrimage through the landscape of 21st century American Christianity.This is not your grandfather’s Pilgrim’s Progress! In this retelling of the beloved allegory, Seeker (who later changes his name to Pilgrim) meets Campus Crusader on his university campus. The evangelist instructs him to begin his journey by entering through a gate illuminated by lamppost, which strangely resembles the one at the boundary of Narnia. Instead of the Slough of Despond this modern Pilgrim falls into the Bog of Existential Angst, and then stays in the Town of Therapy for a while. Where Vanity Fair used to be, now there is Prosperity Gospel Ministries. Pilgrim visits the City of Megachurch where he meets people who suspiciously resemble Robert Schuller, Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, and Benny Hinn. Pilgrim visits Theologian’s house and First Baptist Church. He meets famous preachers like Calvin, Arminius and Billy Graham, as well as familiar characters like Apollyon, Judgmental, Bored, and Spiritual but Not Religious. These are just a few of the adventures that Pilgrim and his companions have on their journey from their home in the Shadowlands (shades of C. S. Lewis) to their Destination beyond the river. This is a romp through contemporary American Christianity that I hope will get you thinking deeply and laughing out loud.

Most of us will wrestle with some existential angst over the course of our lives, pondering the essence of our existence and our place in the world. We may dive deeply into a spiritual quest, determined to learn some answers for ourselves. And we may plunge ourselves into completely new personal and professional situations, ever trying to find where we are “supposed” to be in life. But few of us will embark on the intense pursuit of adventure as guest Sophie McLean has been on, yearning to discover an existential meaning and escape the tedious routine of her life. Having had to confront sadness and despair, she chose numerous experiential and spiritual expeditions to develop her consciousness and competencies. Today she is riveted on supporting public figures and world leaders to end the eternal search for oneself and serve their best game in service of humankind.

Psychologist Sheldon Solomon is the guest on this week's episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. He is a leading authority on social psychology and helped to develop what is known as "terror management theory". Dr. Solomon has written numerous books and articles including In the Wake of 9/11: The Psychology of Terror and The Worm at the Core: On the Role of Death in Life. During this week's show Sheldon and Chauncey discuss how existential angst and death anxieties influenced Trump's voters, Trump and destruction, how emotion can overcome reason in political decision-making, can any headway be made in bringing Trump's deplorables and other supporters back to normal society and reason, if individuals and cultures truly change, as well as the lack of expert voices on the role of psychology and politics in the mass media. On this week's show, Chauncey shares some thoughts about being an only child and product of the working class, explains how White House spokesperson Sean Spicer is an anti-Semite and Holocaust-denier, and offers some thoughts about the new Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailer and also the amazing second season of the Hap and Leonard television show.

Back on Episode 126, Martin shared his angst about not writing as much as he used to. On this episode, he updates you on his writing progress and talks about a new writing project that developed shortly after recording [**"Existential Angst."**](http://www.martinlastrapesshow.com/episodes/126)

Martin is a writer...only he's not been writing. On this episode, he shares several of his favorite books and authors in the hopes that it will inspire him to get writing again.

Dr. Uriel Abulof, a political scientist at Tel Aviv University, is the author of the new book The Mortality and Morality of Nations. He discusses with host Gilad Halpern the three case studies explored in his book - three national collectives that have been pathologically insecure about the validity of their identity and the viability of their polity: French Canadians, Afrikaners, and Jewish Israelis. Song: Hili Yalon - Habayit Hu Halev This season of the Tel Aviv Review is made possible by The Van Leer Jerusalem Institute, which promotes humanistic, democratic, and liberal values in the social discourse in Israel.

Your favorite hosts talk at lengths about existential angst, searching for God, and everything in between. Anonymous bares their soul in a confession, Kervin is fed up with everything, and Megan falls in love with a pornstar.
