Before You Quit

In the past two weeks alone, about seven ladies reached out to me, each with stories of frustration—some with their jobs, others with their businesses, and even a few with personal relationships. The common thread?

They were tired. Fed up. Ready to walk away. 😣

And I get it. 🫂

Maybe you’re reading this and you’ve been thinking the same. You’ve replayed the “I cannot come and kill myself o” anthem in your head so often it’s become your ringtone🎶

Maybe you’ve been eyeing a new job, a different business idea, or a quieter life away from the chaos. Perhaps you’ve even scrolled through someone else's Instagram feed and thought, “This one has it better.”🥺🥺

Here’s the honest truth: every workplace has its pros and cons. Every business faces storms. Every relationship will test you. 🙂‍↔️

Now, don’t get me wrong—I'm not here to talk you out of leaving. If your soul is screaming for a shift, please explore it. Life is too short to stay stuck especially with people or places that don't align. But before you jump ship, I want you to pause and ask yourself the uncomfortable but necessary questions:

• Have I truly looked inward?

• Am I showing up as my best self every day—or have I been slacking, coasting, or mentally checked out?

• Have I done the hard work—research, planning, discipline, risk management—that this job or business requires?

• Am I reacting to pressure or responding with clarity?💭

  
  

It’s always easier to blame management, the government, toxic clients, bad policies—or even your partner. But could it be that there’s something in you that also needs adjusting? 🤔

Many times, the frustration we feel on the outside reflects an unrest on the inside. And if we don't address that internal chaos, we’ll only carry it with us—to the next job, the next business venture, the next relationship.

So, before you take that leap or send in that resignation letter, check in with yourself. What needs to be fixed, healed, improved, or simply acknowledged?

I’m not judging you ⚖️⚖️⚖️. I’ve been there.

I just know that sometimes the breakthrough comes not from running away from challenges, but from digging deep, doing the work, and growing through the discomfort.

I stumbled on this quote from Carl Jung (Therapist) - "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." What is your unconscious flaws?

Think about it. Re-assess. Re-align.

Then move—with wisdom, not just emotion. Read that again!
