If you’re still in your corporate job — serving someone else’s agenda, showing up for work that doesn’t fit who you are or what you believe in — this episode is for you.

n this short, punchy episode, I’m breaking down four reasons it takes so much courage to quit corporate — and how to move through each of them so you can make a confident, grounded exit into more meaningful work of your own.

Because if you’ve been scheming, dreaming, and planning your career change for months (or years) but somehow still haven’t made your move, there’s a reason for that. You’re not lazy, incapable, or confused — you’re human. And your fears are doing their job: trying to keep you safe.

We’ll unpack what’s really keeping you stuck — and what to do about it.

In this episode you’ll learn how to:

• Recognise the real fears hiding beneath practical excuses

• Reframe burnout as a signal, not a failure

• Build a personalised, empowered exit plan

• Take grounded action toward meaningful, purpose-led work

If you’re ready to stop planning and start acting, I can help you map your next steps.
