We grow up believing that loyalty is always rewarded.
Stay at the same job.
Stay in the same city.
Stick with one path.
But what if the advice that's meant to keep you safe is actually keeping you stuck?
In this episode, I share one of the biggest mindset shifts I've had over the last few years: the difference between commitment and settling.
I talk about watching someone lose a 20-year career overnight, why I walked away from projects that no longer aligned with who I wanted to become, and why experimenting has taught me more than playing it safe ever could.
If you've been wondering whether it's time to make a change, this episode is for you.
In this episode, you'll learn:
• Why job security isn't what it used to be
• The difference between commitment and settling
• Why failure is information—not the opposite of success
• How trying new things gives you clarity
• The one question you should ask yourself regularly
• Why your skills—not your job title—are your greatest security
