About this listen

 You know you need to quit. You’ve spent months—maybe years—convincing yourself that it’s not that bad, that you should be grateful, that stability is more important than happiness.
It’s all nonsense.

Burn the Ships is the brutally honest, practical guide to walking away from a soul-sucking job and never looking back. This isn’t just about quitting—it’s about rebuilding your confidence, overcoming fear, and designing work and life on your terms.

Inside, you’ll learn:

✔ How to break free from the fear of financial ruin and job scarcity
✔ How to shut down guilt and stop seeking approval from bosses and coworkers
✔ The art of “soft quitting” while still getting paid
✔ Why your brain will try to trick you into going back—and how to stop it
✔ How to find (or build) work that doesn’t make you miserable
✔ The mindset shift that ensures you never settle for less again

This isn’t another generic career book. This is your wake-up call.
You don’t need permission to quit. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need the guts to walk away—and the plan to make it work.

Burn the Ships is that plan.
