Embracing the Power of Quitting for Self-Care

Quitting can feel amazing, especially when it's a clear self-protection move. And when we haven't waited until it becomes so terrible we have to get out.

But the decision-making process can feel slow!

This episode covers three ways I've decided to quit things:

1. Big emotions / the thing got really bad
2. Math-y pros and cons approach (slow but effective)
3. Getting somatic info from my body

#3 is great... but at the same time, I've done years of building safety around receiving and integrating information from my body! It's not just about the technique itself.
