Have you ever watched the news and thought the anchors had the greatest job? Now can you imagine walking away from it? Well this week's guest did just that.

Lindsay France, former anchor for the news networks RT and RT America, had always wanted to be a journalist, and had successfully built a career as a news anchor. But through covering the 2016 Presidential primaries she found a new and more intense passion that was better aligned with her values...which led to her walking away from the anchor's desk and taking her career in a new direction.

Take a listen as she provides some great advice on finding your passion, following your principles, and using side gigs to prevent the dreaded JOB LOCK!

It's episode 13! 

Many people fear the number 13, so I've dedicated the 13th episode to fear - more specifically, the fears associated with quitting.

This episode covers:

  • Fear of what people will think if you quit
  • Fear that quitting something means you failed
  • Fear of leaving something you've dedicated time/money to
  • Fear that time or money already spent on something you quit will be 'wasted'
  • Fear that quitters never win

So take a listen as Lynn Marie addresses some of the most common fears that can keep people stuck in less-than-optimal situations...so that you can address any of those same fears you may have!

Sometimes the most strategic quit is to have no strategy at all. And sometimes those same impulsive decisions lead to the formation of a solid quitting strategy for the future.

That's what happened when Chad Peace, attorney for the Independent Voter Project and founding board member of the National Association of Nonpartisan Reformers, left his job to join Ron Paul's Presidential campaign. Many of the lessons learned through that quit guided him both to his current work in the nonpartisan space and to be much more strategic in the quits he's made since.

Personal note: I was bound to sneak election reform into the podcast at some point. Promise it won't happen again...much!
