This week we're diving deep into having difficult conversations around quitting. We're going to look at the people in your life—the ones who have lots of opinions on what you should or shouldn't be doing. You know the type: spouses, friends, family, and even coworkers who always seem to have something to say. The first and most crucial step is understanding whether these people should even have a say in your decisions. Now, here's the thing. Different people play different roles in your life. If it's your spouse, for example, their opinion matters because it directly affects both of you. But for others, like your parents or that super opinionated friend, it's important to figure out if they're just giving their two cents or if you genuinely need their support or permission. In this episode, we'll also dive into how to clearly communicate what you need from these conversations.
