Big time! And it is so hard to get people to go there. I have been trying to make more effort to lead my conversations by example.

Here is a paraphrase of actual conversations I have had:
"So, what do you do?"

Well, I really try to spend as much time with my family. We like to go on hikes, and build crafts and forts at home. Besides that, I really enjoying woodworking, writing, and reading passionate things. How about you?

"Oh uh, I'm in corporate finance. So, like mergers and acquisitions. A little bit of bankruptcy sometimes."

And what do you do after work?

"Hmmm, that's a good question."

I think it is so hard for so many of us because we have actually grown detached from our dreams and passions. That is a big piece of my story. Thanks for your great comment and for driving the conversation deeper!
