When Is It Time to Walk Away From a Job or Relationship?
Sometimes, we know something isn’t working anymore.
Maybe it’s a job that leaves you drained and dreading Monday.
Maybe it’s a relationship where you no longer feel respected, supported, or even like yourself anymore.
And yet, knowing something isn’t right doesn’t always make it easy to walk away.
We may stay because of fear, security, history, guilt, or hope that things will change for the better, but they never do.
One question from Episode 101 of Building Better Relationships at Home and Work with Angela and Patti really stood out to me:
Am I staying because this is right for me today, or because it was right for me yesterday?
Sometimes the answer isn’t about leaving. It may be about looking at what’s happening, setting boundaries, having a difficult conversation, or deciding what you want to help make the best decision for you.
🦋 Let’s Take a Pause and Self-Reflect or Journal:
If you’re thinking about a relationship, job, or situation in your life, take a few moments to reflect:
What relationship or situation have I outgrown?
What would happen if I walked away?
What kind of relationship or life do I want to create?
You don’t have to decide immediately. Sometimes, giving yourself time to pause and explore is the first step toward deciding.
Watch or Listen to Episode 101
In this podcast episode, Angela and I explore when it may be time to stay, when it may be time to make changes, and when it may be time to walk away from a work or personal relationship.
We also share healthy ways to leave, create a transition plan, exit plan, deal with mixed emotions, and find closure when we don’t get the ending we hoped for.
Sometimes walking away isn’t closing a door on someone else.
Sometimes it’s opening a door to yourself.
Watch or listen to Episode 101 – When to Walk Away from a Work or Personal Relationship (And How).
