Onwards and Upwards: Quitting Your Job (previously Patreon exclusive episode!)

2/27/2022
Hi friends! I'm giving you a taste of the extra content that I make for Patreon! In this previously Patreon exclusive episode, I'm talking all about quitting your job: why, how, and when. If you listened to the regular episode, I talked about how I recently quit my job and how difficult the process actually was. I took time to assess and ask myself some important questions, and ultimately decided I didn't have a place there anymore. I hope this can resonate with someone, or maybe even get you thinking about your future in your current position! Links to the articles mentioned listed below: https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2022/01/20/should-i-quit-my-job/ https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/21/business/quitting-contagious.html Thanks for listening!

EP66: Taking Up Space

Hi everyone! This week in therapy, I was asked a very thought provoking question: "What makes me minimize my value and space I occupy in people's lives?" WHEW! That one hit me HARD! I'm here to talk about what I've come up with so far, and where I'd like to go. This episode is quite vulnerable and I appreciate you guys for listening and giving me your time.
