046: Should You Quit Your Job? Unpacking The Great Resignation with Chelsea Capps


Listen Later

Today I’m joined by guest host and friend of the podcast, Chelsea Capps! Chelsea and I are digging into the topic of the Great Resignation - the current trend of thousands of people quitting their jobs because they’re unhappy with their workplace in some way. If you’ve felt called to throw your desk papers in the air and dramatically exit the building, you’re not alone! In this episode, we’re discussing how to decide whether you should actually quit your job, some changes you can make at work to make your job more enjoyable, and mindset shifts we need to make to stop tying our satisfaction at work to our satisfaction with our lives as a whole.

  • 3 things to keep in mind during the great resignation:

    • When deciding whether or not to leave your job, try to avoid making a decision that’s reactive and emotional to everything happening around you.
    • Try to pinpoint the main parts of your job you’re really unhappy with and address those head on. A courageous conversation with your manager or setting better boundaries around your work hours could be the key to reclaiming excitement for your job.
    • Realize that your job or title shouldn’t be the sole source of happiness in your life. Focus on building a life outside of work that’s fulfilling and allows you to live authentically.
    • Chelsea Capps is a full-time corporate marketer and the founder of The Branding Alchemist, a side hustle she launched to help solve business and marketing problems of all kinds with the power of brand strategy. The way Chelsea sees it, the process of transforming a brand is a lot like the science of alchemy: melting down the elements of your message and your vibe until all that’s left is gold. She’s also super passionate about personal development, and looks to weave her clients’ unique stories into the most authentic version of their brand identity.

      Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). I work in corporate sales by day and am a personal development guru and Life Coach by night. My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” that their good-on-paper life wasn’t lighting them up, and what they did to change that.
