#132 - Why I Quit My $200K/Year Job

Ahren Lynch-Potter

In today’s honest and no-BS episode, Ahren Lynch-Potter gets real about why he quit his $200K-a-year job—and what it took to finally walk away from something that looked good on paper but felt completely off. He talks about his journey from personal training to psychedelics to coaching, the fears he faced, and the moments that cracked him open. Ahren shares what it’s like to chase money, people-please, and ignore your gut—and what happens when you finally choose to stop doing that. This isn’t just a story about quitting a job—it’s about waking up, trusting yourself, and choosing a life that actually feels right. If you’ve been feeling stuck, lost, or like there’s more out there for you, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.
