Don’t Quit Your Day Job (Yet)

Building your dreams doesn’t always require you to leave your day job. In my latest blog post, I explore why it’s okay to build your vision while holding onto stability, especially in the early stages. If you’ve been feeling the pressure to go all-in and quit your job, this post will remind you that there’s power in growing your dream at your own pace. For more on how balancing both can lead to sustainable success, listen to the full episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast.

If you’re dreaming of something more—your own business, a creative path, a new way of living—but you're still working a 9–5 (or more like an 8–7), I want you to know:
You’re not behind. You’re building.

There’s this loud message in the online world that says if you’re not “all in,” you’re not serious. That real entrepreneurs take the leap, burn the boats, quit the job, and never look back.

And while that’s a powerful story for some…
It’s not the only way.
And it’s not the right way for everyone—especially if you’re a mother, a provider, or someone who actually likes stability (yes, that’s allowed).

In this episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast, I talk about what it looks like to honor your ambition without blowing up your life.
I share my own story of holding the “both/and”:
Building a vision I believe in deeply—while still showing up to the job that pays the bills.

Because here’s the truth:
Sometimes your day job is not the problem.
Sometimes it’s the scaffolding for your dream.
Sometimes it’s the thing that allows you to create from a place of safety, rather than scarcity.

You can keep your job and take yourself seriously as a creator, coach, founder, or healer.
You can feel frustrated and grateful.
You can be a dreamer and practical as hell.

We need more women telling the truth about what it really takes to build something sustainable.
And sometimes that truth is: don’t quit your day job… yet.

✨ If you’re building a dream in the margins of your life, this episode is for you.
