Scenario

When support groups become complaint sessions instead of genuine inquiry

Three of us have been meeting monthly to talk through career transitions and somewhere along the way it became a place where we just complain about our jobs instead of actually examining what work means to us. I think we're all hungry for the deeper conversation but no one wants to be the one to shift it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The group has settled into a comfortable pattern of venting that prevents the more vulnerable work of actual examination.
