One problem is the fear of the unknown. People are happier in their prison than in the open world because they know the prison. They want to get out, they want to be free, but they are also scared of what will happen or they are scared of rejection. That is what keeps people stuck...at least for me it is.
The body is a prison, the mind is his executioner.
That’s not always the case. I have a wonderful pension waiting for me in 7.5 years. I’ll retire with full pension at the age at 53. I’d love to be able to walk away but I have debt that I need to payoff. I can’t pull out my 401k without penalty and don’t have enough cash on hand and other investments to walk away from my job that sucks the life out of me. I’m the meantime, I pray everyday that I get though another day and doing what I can keep my sanity and eat healthy.

If this woman despises her job, she definitely needs to find a new career. We spend too much time at work not to be happy and feeling like we despise our work.
Easier said than done?? You know most careers want some education or certifications to go with them. Like you can't just change from Finance to Nursing in a month? You go to college for years to even get to that point. It is not easy unless you take a huge pay cut in some other field that is bottom of the barrel.

I walked out of my job mid shift on Monday. Interview set up for Wednesday. If they don’t treat you fairly then dip out it’s that simple. Always another job
Not always the case for professional jobs
Wise words I once heard- “I was looking for a job when I found this one.”
While I 100% agree this should only be done in extreme cases of employer disrespect or dishonesty. Doing this in an actual career field could taint your record IE engineer or accountant.
I agree you shouldn't stay in a place your miserable, however, its not always "that simple", a lot of us wouldn't ever be able walk out without a new job lined up because we depend on the income 🤷♀️
If work doesn’t treat you well, you can leave. But I recommend, have another job before jump ship. There are always good/bad in anything. This job she hate, it might have something that she want. Maybe flexibility hours to help with the kids? Maybe some fear of not being marketable? Some changes like new education required time and being parents have lack of time.
Make way less and I get sick to my stomach every time I have to go to work. Feel like blowing my brains out just to get free.

The alternative is making considerably less money and downgrading your lifestyle. If you are ok with less income and don’t have the pressure of continuing to provide that level of lifestyle for your family then that is the best option.
I've been at my job about 20 years and I hate it. It's not so much the job but the people and the management are running it into the ground. It's easy to make that decision when your spouse is making $110k+. When I'm making $40-$45k and my wife is making $15k with no college degree, and we both have excellent benefits, it gets a little complicated. Anywhere around here I'd have to take a $5-$6k pay cut and lose my benefits
When you realize you're in a dead end role and there's people around you flaunting they've been stuck making cap of 24/h for over 10 years and that means they get the preferred holiday dates.. Made me leave so fast
Once it makes you depressed enough, it becomes a brutal cycle keeping you mentally trapped and exhausted.
Its exactly what companies want.
This society is going to fail because the people on top are taking too much and giving too little. You cant keep people working when the reason for doing so has almost fully dissapeared.

No degree and making between 70 and 100?? Wow! Money ain't everything though. Can't put a price tag on a piece of mind
That’s huge if your into details, many people are not into that. Plus you sound healthy and speak in a friendly way.

Great show, and very relevant.
I know Ken means well but he doesn’t realize that not all dreams come true. Sometimes you throw your heart and soul into something and you fail to the point where you would be 100% better off if you had never even started chasing the dream. I am living proof of that. How I wish I could turn back time and never have tried.

I’ve been hating my job ever since we got a new supervisor that is unprofessional and shows favoritism. (Yes, I have talked to HR about it. Nothing has changed. Only gotten worse.) Now that I’m 31 weeks pregnant I think it’s best for me to leave. On top of the stress and drama the hours are crappy and I barely get to spend anytime with the child I already have. I’m running for the hills.
I would like to train horses. I'm 59, and don't own a horse. This is a leap for me. 😂.
@Heavyify 😂 yes
Go find a horse barn and start learning!
Maybe more like a gallop. *boom tsh*
I’m a horse
Start with tiny plastic ones and work your way up.
Looking like a crazy woman will be plenty of motivation to get yourself up to a point where you can train real ones
I live in the suburbs of Detroit. Assembly line work in the auto industry is traditional around here and it is tough work. Good luck and best wishes.
Grace--I hope you found something you are happy with! I'm 54 and I still haven't found what I'm looking for, but I'm getting there! I went back to school, took classes as I could afford to--no student loans--and I graduated with my bachelors degree at age 50. Don't be afraid to go for it! You can always work temp jobs if you need to bring in income, but seriously, don't waste your good years being miserable! Best of luck to you!!!

Well, get ready for your 30s when you can't get jobs as easily.
I have a stable income for now, but hate my job and also might be getting to end of my career in tech. I am mid age and I am main income for my family. So, I can’t just quit to try something else.
What do you do in tech?
Rare to see someone who hates working in tech
This was the best episode I've seen so far. It really speaks to me. There are things that I'm interested in doing but I know it won't replace my income, at least not at the start. However, I should try to do it to see if it can at least supplement my income, plus it will be more enjoyable.
These guys have an amazing ability to listen - something to aspire to.
I wonder if the advice for Grace would be the same if she didn’t have her husband’s solid income or if she were a single parent.
I think it would probably be same. She can take some part of her income to learn the skills she is is passionate about and move into that career. I think she gave also invested money in some index funds (I assume she didn't) so it would have compounded now so that she can quit without much fear of risk.
Good question
This maybe have been the sign I needed to see. I’ve been offered to switch departments at work, however, the catch is in not guaranteed as many hours at my current job. This new opportunity would be great for my learning though.
This episode reminds me of one of those psychic readers that repeat back to you everything that you are telling them and they think you are reading their minds
Yes. It's easy. Anyone can be a motivator. Anyone has self help someone other than themselves. Actually it's easier if your rich and famous like these people
Nice work 🎆🎇🎇
I did as well. I just received my first pay at my new job and I worked 84 hours and hate it and got paid under a thousand dollars.
The working person is Not Free. Plain and simple.

Today I got up at 9 am. Then I went for a walk, it's a nice summer day, why not? Now I'm fixing lunch. Then I might take a nap. It's Monday. I'm NOT playing nice with people and bottling up my frustration. I say whatever I want to whoever. Yep, I'm retired! And the best part is you're not :)
What if my idea if a dream job changes every couple weeks? Adhd brain.... As soon as i start my dream job, the novelty wears and i want something completely different.
I been in her position. I know what it feels like to work at a job you hate that’s why you gotta make a change in your life or else you’ll be sad and miserable forever
At 23 years old. Im scared of this. Staying at a job for over 15 years to be incredibly unhappy and cheated. Going back to school hoping Itll be a better position for work in the future.
A lot of companies are happy finding people where the lights are on and someone is home! Just showing up and not being a dolt is enough. When I was young, I used a shotgun approach, knock on 20 doors and at least one will answer. I always got hired and I worked for some very interesting companies I never knew existed. It was interesting and usually a happy and lucrative surprise. You bring it and the rest will follow. Don't underestimate yourself.
SHE HAS ALOT OF DEBT AND CANT LEAVE
i relate to this on a spirtual level.
Same great pay but been stuck on 3rd shift that few extra dollars a hour isn’t worth my happiness and having time
I've been thinking of applying at the local factory. It's 12 hour shifts, but you get 15 days off a month. Sadly, I have a choice between this and becoming a CNA. They're the only full time jobs with benefits. I'm at my parents house and need money after my job abroad shut down on a 1 day notice. Otherwise, I will have to take part time/no benefits work at a restaurant and save money to move out, which will be too long for comfort. Not much of a choice. if you do night shift they pay just $1 more an hour. I would do day shift, but I am pretty sure I'd be exhausted.
As long as you have another job and can pay the bills, go for it!
I like details and organizing things which is mostly what my job is about but i hate it because i can get sued if i make a mistake and its very easy to make a simple math mistake.
These calls are so painful to listen to. What do you like, what do you want to do, what are your skills?

You can be hired with even a GDE.

@soapfanaddict I will thank you.
All jobs suck to one degree or another. That's why they pay you to be there.
Nobody should ever be forced to do overtime. Overtime should be voluntary and paid accordingly.
Try telling that to my employer.
Dang I’d love to take some notes from Grace as a 18 y/o Detroit resident my self
I know a lot of people making that kind of money... who quit... thinking they would find something else... everyone I know who did that... now they are broke and desperate and unhappy in all the other jobs they took or totally failed at an entrepreneurial effort. Bottom line is that it sucks... if you feel your employer is offering a neutral (vs evil) product or service... keep your job and use that to pay off a house and save money.., then get out after you do that.
I would like that job rn. My job currently on a stop with overtime because production is low.
I've spent around three years trying to upskill and learn data analytic related skills hoping that I can finally put my six years of underemployment since graduating with my Master's degree behind me. Having to settle for working the same type of minimum wage, thankless job I did 30 years ago when I had no professional experience has wrecked my mental health. Working these dead end, minimum wage jobs do more than suck the life out of me, they often make me wish I would never wake up again.
I had a job like that once. Bully boss and almost committed suicide. It was horrible.
if you do not do what you want ...when you want to do it...for as long as you want to do it for...what you do for work will not make you happy..no matter what field or job

I enjoy my job, but my expectations and figures are too high for the amount of resources I get
I can totally identify with this lady. I don't feel like i could enjoy doing anything anymore. I'm just tired of it all after over 27 years. It's not my company nor my coworkers. They are great. I'm just tired of missing out on life because i have to prioritize work. I can't get it all done without putting in many nights and weekends. After doing that off and on for over 27 years in various IT jobs, it just gets old.
At least she has a husband making a good salary to pay the bills. It's not all on her shoulders. She could work part time or take off to "find herself". Single women never have that freedom. I feel worse because I've saved, but I've recently had so many expensive emergencies that deleted my entire emergency fund plus more. I'll never get to retire, but i really need to.
Practice downsizing minimalism downshifting non consuming in all areas .stick to time with nature family friends and always look for new experiences and interesting hobbies in time it frees up .no pockets in your shroud .gone from a 60 he week nursing job to 24 hrs with plan to escape fully real soon

Depends on your field, and especially your motivation and skill level.
So what do you suggest instead ?
@@fitnessd8402 I would rather just find work. Going back to school typically costs money, and if you're already in dire straits or have debt, then an income would be the most important thing in my perspective. School also tends to take a lot of time and doesn't guarantee a job.
