140. Quitting is Hard - Tools to Help You Quit With Grace

Someone will be disappointed whether you quit or stay. Make sure you are not the one who is disappointed.   It's normal to worry about burning bridges when you quit.  What if you are building a bridge back to yourself instead?   Quitting is not a failure. It might be a win.  It is often growth and evolution. Very often we quit when things are no longer "a fit" for this season of our career or our lives.  We step down when things are no longer in alignment with who we are in this moment.   Most of us wait too long to quit. Quitting, pivoting and stepping back is brave, and courageous. It is supposed to be hard.    Rather than focusing on "quitting" - a word that often has negative connotations consider instead that you may have had " enough of" something and /or you might be ready to graduate. Quitting can be one of the most radical acts of self-compassion. And it can be done with intention and grace. What will the world miss out on if you don't quit? What will you gain from quitting?   If you are considering quitting, pivoting, or changing course, join Jessie for Transition Well. A small group coaching program for women who are navigating change. The purpose of the group is to help you set yourself up for a healthy and well transition.  Traversing change with support is MUCH better. www.jessiemahoneymd.com/transition-well Not yet ready for a transition- or not sure what you are ready for yet?  Ongoing Presence Small group Coaching fro Women Physicians also starts soon.  www.jessiemahoneymd.com/ongoing-presence This is also the last call for the Connect in Nature Retreat.
