Crying Over Unused PTO: Deciding When to Walk Away (pt 1)
from Crying at the Gym · host Brooke Antol and Lyze Lies
EPISODE 7 -- CRYING OVER UNUSED PTO: DECIDING WHEN TO WALK AWAY (PT 1)Buckle up, saddies! This one's a two-parter. In this series, Brooke and Lyze are tackling a question that's as personal as it is universal: when to walk away? Although this question pops up in about a million different contexts, this week, Brooke is opening up about her recent decision to walk away from her first practicing lawyer job. From her daily office cries (that she obviously carried into the gym) to her failed attempts at balancing the billable hour requirement with avoiding burnout, Brooke shares what made her finally reach her breaking point that made her walk away. If you're feeling trapped in a toxic work environment, are struggling with the pressure of being a young professional, or have simply ever cried at work, tune in to hear how Brooke learned to recognize the red flags, prioritize her mental health, and trust her gut when it came time to make a change. Part 2 will shift the lens from career to personal life, where Lyze will open up about her difficult -- but necessary -- decision to walk away from an abusive relationship.
