Some of our listeners have let us know that the podcast is shining a light on aspects on how unhappy they are at their current jobs. Some are feeling chronic stress, feeling deeply unmotivated, and even dread.
Do you relate? Is it time to quit your job?
In this episode, Jessica and Paula talk about how, before taking the leap and quitting your job, you can start planning to build a bridge to a new job, career or calling.
Specifically, we talk about the very first step - coming into a centered space where you move from an agitated place to the pre-frontal cortex - the part of the brain that helps us plan better and access our creative selves.
Embodied practice steps we describe in the episode:
1. Take a mindful pause.
2. Identify and validate your emotions.
3. Release your emotions (optional: with the support of an essential oil).
4. Identify your inner resource.
5. Take some time to loosely sketch your next steps (financial and work-related).
