Welcome to Season 2 of No One Knows What They’re Doing! 🎉 This season, we’re taking it LIVE—you’re calling in, and I’m giving you real, unfiltered, big-sister career advice on the spot.

And today’s caller? Michelle is ready to quit her job… but she’s TERRIFIED of how her boss and coworkers will react. Why? Because her workplace has that “we’re a family” dynamic (AKA a walking red flag 🚩).

In this episode, we dive into:
✅ How to quit a job when your workplace guilt-trips you into staying
✅ Why you don’t owe your boss a “heads up” before you resign
✅ The exact phrases to use if your boss tries to manipulate you (so you don’t get trapped in a long, awkward convo)
✅ How to stop overthinking your exit and actually just leave

👀 Tune in if you’ve ever felt guilty about quitting a job you KNOW isn’t right for you—and let’s work through it together.
