Have you ever stayed in something longer than you knew was right—because it wasn’t terrible, and it seemed like the “responsible” thing to do?
This week, we invite you into a mindful conversation about the powerful concept of graduating and outgrowing roles rather than quitting.
What if moving on didn’t mean giving up—but meant you’ve outgrown, evolved, and are ready for what’s next? Listen to learn how to recognize that moment, navigate it with grace, and honor the growth that brought you to this turning point.
Whether you're feeling restless in a professional role, a volunteer commitment, or a title that no longer fits, this episode is a gentle reminder that permission to move forward comes from within.
Pearls of Wisdom:
Graduating is a celebration of growth—quitting is not the only story available.
Feeling uninspired, bored, or disconnected might be your inner wisdom inviting you forward.
You don’t have to wait until you’re depleted or miserable to make a change.
Mindfully leaving can create space for the transformation of yours and others’.
Leadership sometimes means stepping aside, making room for new voices and fresh energy.
Reflection Questions:
What in your life feels like a graduation that’s waiting to happen?
If you trusted your body’s wisdom, what might you step away from?
What new chapter might be waiting if only you created the space to let it arrive?
In this episode, I share a powerful tool I learned from Martha Beck- The Body Compass. This tool, when done well,l can help you release fear-based decision-making.
If you're navigating a transition—or even just wondering whether it's time to move on from something that no longer aligns—this episode offers loving guidance and encouragement.
