Many times in our lives we are told don’t quit, hang in there, or stick with it, but is it healthy to continue doing something that makes us miserable? What if making a change could lead us to joy and contentment? To find the answer Drew speaks expert quitter and author of Quitting by Design, Dr. Lynn Marie Morski. Dr. Morski began strategically quitting when she struggled in her career as a multimedia designer so she did a 360 and decided to go back to college to become a doctor of sports medicine. A quarter of a million dollars later she figured out sports medicine wasn’t for her either. Did she flounder? No. Today she uses her varied education to inform others about the benefits of quitting. She is the host of three podcasts and she runs PlantMedicine.org where she dives deep into the medicines not taught about in medical school.
