Season 1: Should I Quit My Job?
That’s right, I’m giving you the answer to the season up front. Why? Because you have to decide if doing this work and digging in will be right for you.
 
So many people either don’t appreciate the position they have OR they know they want more, but they don’t know where to start.
 
We are going to assess ourselves two different ways – internal and external. The internal assessment will look at what you can control and the external assessment will evaluate what is out of your control and how to manage it. Each episode will walk you through different considerations and provide prompts and examples to help you evaluate these internal and external considerations for yourself.
 
This episode outlines five scenarios that you might identify with to determine whether you should quit your job.
 
1. I’ve outgrown my position and I’m not sure where to go next.
2. I like my job enough, but something is missing.
3. I’m in a toxic environment and I need to get out, but I don’t know how or where to go next.
4. I’m ambitious and I want to move ahead quickly in my career. The position I am in doesn’t allow me to grow or expand my skill set.
5. Technically, there is a fifth option, which is you love your job and don’t plan to leave any time soon.
 
If you fall into any of these scenarios, welcome! Let’s go on this journey together. I would love to know which scenario you identify with and what questions you have that you would like answered.
