About Inside Job

We're Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson, and we love to talk about the intersection of life and work. Why? Most of us will spend more hours of our life working than doing anything else. The relationship we have with work, and the way we make meaning of our time and experience there, serves as a great platform to explore how we show up to the rest of our lives: relationships, family and parenting, our health, our hobbies and interests, and our general attitude towards the human experience. With insights and observations pulled from our leadership and career coaching, teaching and consulting work, as well as the most relevant research across fields, we'll talk about the ideas that really impact how you experience work – and your life – and actionable strategies to make work work for you, from the inside out.

Published 7 Jul 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] I love... Helping people, whether it's coaching or in sobriety community, I love the person to person interaction. I love to see the growth. I love celebrating the victories. I love helping people navigate the obstacles. And I just struggle with all of the email in between that and like the administrative paperwork of like invoicing and processing payments and tracking down people who haven't paid and like all of that component. It's a lot. Anything that requires a level of organization and administrative excellence is a grind for me. It takes a lot of energy that I don't have for those tasks. […]
