“If you don’t like where you are, MOVE. You are not a tree.”

–Jim Rohn 

Too many of us get stuck in jobs where we feel comfortable. We’re afraid to walk away from the security of a regular paycheck and try something new. But if you’re not happy or your current situation isn’t getting you closer to your long-term goals, it’s time to take action. I’ve quit my job TWICE, so I speak from experience when I tell you that it’s totally worth it.

On this episode of Queer Money, I’m sharing what inspired me to quit a good job at Charles Schwab and how my situation improved when I took on a new role at Great West Financial. I discuss the fears I had to overcome in making the transition, describing just how nervous I was to walk away from decent money and a position I liked.

I go on to explain why I quit my job at Great West to become a full-time entrepreneur, addressing the uncertainty John and I faced and what we did to prepare. Listen in to understand how my life has changed for the better since I quit my job (twice!) and learn how to overcome your fears and take steps to OWN your tomorrow!
