I see you, Sis. You are exhausted, stressed, and feeling drained every day—but still showing up because leaving feels scary and uncertain. Maybe you are wondering:
❗️ “What if I leave and it’s worse somewhere else?”
❗️ “What if I can’t find another job that pays the bills?”
❗️ “What if I’m not ready for what’s next?”
You are not alone if you have any or all of these fears. So many of us stay in toxic workplaces because the fear of the unknown feels heavier than the burden we are already carrying. But Sis... staying in a space that is breaking you down is not the answer. The longer you stay, the more it chips away at your confidence, health (physical and mental), as well as your soul.
The fears of leaving a job (even a toxic one) may even keep you from believing that there are ways to leave and replace your income. You may avoid conversations (including my videos) about leaving a job because the fears of "what next" may feel overwhelming.
Acknowledging your fears is the first step forward. Additional steps are accepting that walking through the fears are part of the process of leaving a job. It is my sincere hope that my YouTube videos as well as resources that I provide show you HOW to walk through your fears and successfully leave a job (one that is toxic and/or have "outgrown").
Sis, you do not have to figure this out alone. Let’s have an honest, real talk conversation about what is keeping you stuck so that this community can support you in leaving that job and pivoting to better professional opportunities. You deserve better!
