In this episode, I engage in a deep conversation with Goli Kalkaran about the hidden power of quitting courageously. We explore how societal conditioning shapes our views on quitting, the journey from shame to empowerment, and the importance of reframing quitting as an opportunity for growth. Together, we discuss the stories we tell ourselves, the difference between clean and dirty pain, and the necessity of getting comfortable with discomfort during transitions.
We also delve into self-compassion and the challenges of knowing when to quit versus when to stay in a job. Goli shares her perspective on the importance of personal responsibility in the workplace, emphasizing the need for individuals to manage their own mindset and set boundaries. Challenging traditional notions of work as a family and the pressure to find a singular passion, Goli advocates instead for a more transactional view of employment.
During the episode, she introduces her Quitter Club membership, a program designed to help individuals navigate their career paths and personal growth. We also touch on the roles of therapy and coaching, recognizing that different tools are necessary for different people and situations.
