Jo-Ann talks to Tisha about how she resigned from her job without a plan. She discusses the wave of emotions she felt leading up to the weeks before she decided to resign. A sudden event at work confirmed that it was time to depart. She did what most would like to do but can’t. She left and started her business. Tisha says, “The first thing I had to let go of was fear. Fear to just decide to walk away from my job with no plan insight yet (or so I thought, clearly God did have a plan for me!). I am normally one who likes to have everything in place, I must know how and why before I make any decision. Starting this business and growing it has taught me that you don’t always have to have things figured out thoroughly in order to take that first step, then the 2nd or 3rd.” Are you in a similar position? Would you like to take the leap? Listen to Tisha’s podcast to get inspired, she is now on venture two since leaving and her business is growing from strength to strength.
