193: How to actually tell your boss you're quitting - without feeling like a terrible person!

Об эпизоде

<p>Quitting your job can feel less like a professional decision and more like a personal betrayal, especially when your boss has been kind, the timing is awkward, or you just really hate confrontation.</p><p>In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma unpack all the emotional landmines that come with handing in your resignation. From guilt and fear, to navigating tricky situations like quitting a job you just started, or leaving for a competitor, we’ve got your back.</p><p>You’ll learn how to deliver the news without lying, oversharing, or crumbling into an apology spiral and get a word-for-word script you can use to start the conversation.</p><p>If you’ve been putting off that dreaded chat with your boss, this is your sign to rip the Band-Aid off, and do it with confidence.</p><p>🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Alex who bought us 20 coffees!</p><p>"Hi Emma &amp; Sarah, Excuse the essay but this is a very big heartfelt thank you note. I have wanted to “shout you a coffee” for ages but wanted to hold off until I hit the goal of job change! I’m officially week two into THE job, and I couldn’t have done it without you. Truly. I’ve been a massive fan of your podcast for a long time (I might have a shot at #1 listener) and did a 1:1 session early on - back then I didn’t know exactly what I needed but the session prompted me to do some deeper digging and spend some time figuring out the journey I wanted to go on. The insights I gained from you both have helped me across a wide range of things: applying for Marketing Academy (I got down to the very last round!), getting involved in volunteering (with a selective interview round), how to approach some of the tougher career subjects with mentees &amp; direct reports, &amp; finally applying for new roles. I ultimately made the call to wait out for the big job…and patience and persistence have paid off! It’s a role that makes my tail wag and is a new industry that I can still bring my experience to. I’ve recommended you to just about everyone I know &amp; will continue to. Your work has made such an impact on my life, and I’m so grateful. Thank you, you legends!"</p><p>🎥 Check out BRAND NEW free training - Top Interview Tips <a href="https://www.interviewboss.com.au/top-interview-tips" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.interviewboss.com.au/top-interview-tips</a></p><p>🏫 To get step by step help with your interview prep on demand check out our Interview Academy<a href="https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.interviewboss.com.au/interview-academy</a></p><p>☕ Did our podcast help you out?
