Be it a job, a relationship or even a habit, making the difficult decision to quit something can be the ultimate act of self-preservation. Seriously, we’re big fans of moving on from jobs or situations that don’t serve us, and quitting has led to some of our biggest successes!We’re living through The Great Resignation right now with North Americans quitting their jobs at record high rates, and if we’ve collectively learned anything from the last two chaotic years, it’s that our BS tolerance is at an all-time low, and we deserve to start prioritizing the things that bring us joy, growth and fulfillment. #YOLO!So, this week we’re flipping the script on quitting and redefining success for ourselves.
