You wonder what’s wrong with you, or if you made a terrible mistake by leaving. You didn’t. You’re just offgassing.

In today’s episode, we’ll talk about what happens right after you leave corporate, and why the transition often comes with a mental and emotional fog. 

I’ll show you how to make sense of that phase, how to give yourself permission to be unproductive, and why this time isn’t a setback. It’s a reset.
