You might be ready to quit your job. But you're also about to reshape the ecosystem that’s been quietly supporting your life.
Your decision to leave corporate isn’t just about your values or freedom. It touches everything: your relationships, routines, roles, and sense of identity. You don’t operate in a vacuum.
