Summary

I have faced so many career setbacks, it makes me wonder...should I quit? Is God telling me it's time to walk away from this platform that I worked so hard to build? I walk you through my thinking on that. I also discuss:

-- the new podcast logo created by ChatGPT

-- the handicapped parking tag situation

-- the problem Pope Leo faced that is so relatable to me!

-- my amazing graduation gift for my daughter

...plus the usual cancer journey updates.
