This is self-work and I'm Dr. Margaret Rutherford.

At self-work we'll discuss psychological and emotional issues common in today's world

and what to do about them.

I'm Dr. Margaret and self-work is a podcast dedicated to you taking just a few minutes today for your own self-work.

Hello and welcome or welcome back to self-work.

I'm Dr. Margaret Rutherford.

I'm a clinical psychologist from Fayetteville, Arkansas,

and I've practiced for over 25 years.

I decided a couple of years ago to start a podcast to basically extend the

walls of my practice. I wanted to reach people who might already be interested in

psychological or emotional issues or perhaps people who had just been diagnosed with PTSD or

depression or anxiety or might be having relationship issues that they're

really stuck in.

And then of course the third group, those of you who might be listening that might never

have considered therapy or even talking to a therapist, but would be interested in listening to what someone like me might have to say.

So welcome to all of you.

Today we're going to be talking about work life.

Are you happy at work? Getting along at work.

I've been asked by so many people to do a podcast on this, and I was a little bit hesitant,

because frankly, for most of my life, I've worked for for myself whether that was leading my band

when I was a professional singer or being in private practices psychologist.

However I have seen hundreds if not thousands of people in 25 years who have worked.
