Quitting your career isn't always the clear and obvious choice. Here's something you probably didn't know about me👇
Late 2015: I was the Senior Manager of Brand Marketing for a global apparel company. My 2015 was spent working consistent 60-80+ hour weeks which led to an an existential crisis. What was I doing with my life? Was I really here to sell people more $40 jeans they didn't need?

Q: Is this an interesting way to determine online course value?
I've taken 3 courses and saved notes from each of them. After the course, I divided the course cost by the word count of my notes.
All the courses ended up between $0.08-0.12/word. Here's what I mean👇

I quit my career 4 years ago.
It was the easiest decision I've ever made. Here's why...
I had an existential crisis in late 2015, but I continued to work another 2.5 years post-crisis.
Those years were brutal as I learned more about myself and life in general but still showed up day after day to a purposeless job (talk about cognitive dissonance!).
