On this throwback episode of the Support is Sexy podcast, author and television executive Mitzi Miller shares how, as a high-powered editor-in-chief position at a magazine she long admired, she was unhappy, felt stuck and was making herself seriously ill. But she felt trapped by the "golden handcuffs" -- that is until she finally released herself and made the leap.

Today, Mitzi — who is also author of five books, including The Vow, which was made into a TV movie for Lifetime — is VP of Development for Rainforest Entertainment and was executive producer on the BET series, The Yard. She lives in LA, she loves the work she does, she is healthy, she is happy. And as she shared in this episode, she wants you to know that you can walk away and be okay.
