1756: How to Quit Your Job (Encore)

Farnoosh Torabi
About this episode

A new study reveals that more people want to quit their jobs now than during the Great Resignation. Whether it’s to find better-paying work to address the rising cost of living or simply to leave their company or industry and start fresh on a professional path they actually enjoy, the big question remains: Will they quit?


Our guest today is helping people overcome that hurdle.


Goli Kalkhoran is a Master-Certified Life Coach and former attorney who helps unfulfilled professionals create a career (and life) they genuinely enjoy. She hosts the Lessons from a Quitter podcast, where she de-stigmatizes quitting and offers resources and inspiration for individuals looking to pivot in their established careers. In this episode, we discuss why our culture is so afraid of quitting, how to afford to leave — financially and energetically -- and Goli’s journey of quitting her law career and the many pivots that followed.
