Welcome to the very first solo episode in the history of The Time I Left My 9 to 5 podcast! I asked on my Instagram what questions you had when it comes to considering leaving your 9 to 5, and I am answering all of them in this episode. I intentionally designed this episode to be research and statistics driven so that you can walk away with actionable frameworks that you can use to apply to your specific situation~

✅ The Regret Minimization Framework - Jeff Bezos' decision-making tool for major life changes

✅ Why 82% of businesses fail (and how to avoid becoming a statistic)

✅ The exact amount you should save before quitting (hint: it's more than 6 months)

✅ The "If-Then Planning" method that increases goal achievement by 300%

✅ How to stay accountable when you're your own boss

✅ The 10-10-10 Rule for making tough decisions

✅ Why your nonprofit/teaching skills are actually gold in the corporate world
