Leaving a well-paid, stable job can feel like a massive risk. But if you’re feeling unfulfilled or burnt-out, it might be time to rethink what you want from work and life. Whether you want to go remote, buy back time, or fly solo - this is your guide to make that change.
But how do you make sure you build a life that aligns with your values, without sacrificing security - or ending up busier than ever?
In this episode of The Switch from St. James’s Place Financial Adviser Academy, host Gee Foottit speaks to Remote Career Strategist Grace Nicholls, who helps others escape the grind and build careers that offer freedom, flexibility, and fulfilment.
Together they explore:
➡︎ How migraines and stress were Grace’s wake-up call to leave corporate life
➡︎ How a trip to Bali (and life-threatening illness) made her rethink success
➡︎ Practical steps to negotiate remote work or transition into freelancing
➡︎ The importance of routines, community, and self-motivation in remote careers
➡︎ How to balance financial security with freedom and flexibility
