About this listen
In this heartfelt and honest episode, I take you into a topic many M&E professionals experience but rarely talk about - boredom. Whether you're a data enthusiast, evaluation strategist, or new to the field, chances are you've felt stuck, disengaged, or wondered if your work still sparks joy.
I unpack the 4 B’s of Boredom in M&E—Burnout, Boxed-In, Blind Spots, and Bureaucracy—and dive into real causes of disengagement, from rigid structures to lost purpose. You’ll also hear inspiring reflections from colleagues across the globe, including Baraka Mfilinge in East Africa, and Edgardo Castañeda from Honduras.
This episode isn't just about naming the problem - it's about rediscovering your spark. I share 10 practical, story-rich strategies to reignite your motivation and reconnect with why you got into this field in the first place.
🎧 Tune in if you’ve ever felt like your M&E work was more mechanical than meaningful—and leave with tools to shift that narrative.
