This week we are throwing it back to when I quit my job!
All right, I'm convinced that we all have that one friend that insists on celebrating their birthday for an entire month! And they are doing something every single day and they always have an excuse to go to dinner or to celebrate because it's their birth month.
For me, I have to say, I kind of feel that way towards Fun on Weekdays. July 27th is my one-year anniversary of starting Fun on Weekdays. When I started this podcast, I was working full-time at TikTok. I was working in advertising and I got the job pretty publicly for anybody new here that maybe doesn't know my origin story and how all of this came to life. I wanted to throw it back to one of my most downloaded episodes talking about me quitting my job.

1:28.6 | employs you? |
1:30.1 | So I struggled with that a lot and I kind of found a way to cope with the fact that I really |
