1892: This Is the Correct (and Safe) Way...

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 truly enjoy. She’s the host of 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 quitting — both financially and energetically
  • Goli’s own journey of quitting her law career and the many pivots that followed.
