You hate your job.
Not "Mondays are rough" hate. The kind where people regret asking how work is going. You've known it for months. Maybe years. And you keep waiting for it to change. For the new manager to make it better. For the promotion to fix it. For Todd to shut the fuck up about adding a new analysis.
Here's the thing: if you truly hate it, that's unlikely to change.
And accepting that reality is actually the first step to thinking clearly about what comes next.
There are exactly three questions that separate the women who leave well from the women who flame out. Most people have never asked themselves even one. And they pay for it for years.
