Welcome to UN/DO - the podcast where we rethink work, rest, and play. Hosted by Dulcie and Yemisi, this season is all about unlearning the rules we’ve been handed and doing life on our terms. If you’re done shrinking, settling, or running on fumes…you’re in the right place.
This week, we’re talking about something we don’t explore nearly enough: leaving.
Not just how to leave, but when, why, and what it means about us.
Because we’re often taught to cling. To be loyal. To endure. But staying too long in the wrong place can cost you your energy, your confidence, and your joy. This episode is about what it means to leave well - with clarity, self-respect, and your next chapter in mind.
In this episode:
Why quitting is wrongly framed as failure or flakiness
How work culture glorifies endurance over honesty
What staying too long in the wrong place really costs us
Lessons from Dame Jacinda Ardern on leaving with integrity
Our signature UN/DO practice - one thing to unlearn, one thing to do differently
Books mentioned:
Transitions by William Bridges
Quit by Annie Duke
Untamed by Glennon Doyle
