S4 Ep 16 :: Why it is good and important to mourn leaving a job

In the 21st century, we rarely see what we saw people 40 years ago do. Work at one company for X amount of years and retire. Today, depending on our careers, we are lucky to work at a few different companies. And sometimes when we leave a company, we are sad to leave even though we know it's is right. In this episode, your hosts discuss something we've never spoken about before on The Saus, grieving the 'loss' of a job. Why you should do it, why it is crucial, and why take the time to mourn. We hope you enjoy, Sausers!
