The Normal 40 Podcast

The Big Decision; Knowing When To Quit Your W-2


Listen Later

Do you find yourself constantly chasing work, stuck in a cycle of stress addiction, and yearning for a different life? You're not alone -- and I'm going to prove it.

Meet Tim Klimchock, a one-time corporate executive and CPA, who mustered the courage to finally trade his W2 income for a chance at chasing something bigger. Tim shares the hardships he has faced since leaving a year ago and how he has used the "Normal 40 Insurance Policy" to re-evaluate his life and finances.

We also talked about how work-related stress, sleepless nights, and health issues and how he combatted this through introspection and lifestyle changes.

Tim also opens up about his transition into entrepreneurship, the mental shift that followed, and the importance of finding fulfillment in work after making "The Trade." He has traded being a corporate executive to all who pay, for the ability to be a consultant to a few he loves.

This episode is more than just a tale of a career transition; it's a deep dive into personal growth, life choices, and the relentless pursuit of a meaningful life. It's the story of a guy who has done what you've been thinking about.
