Resignation & Revelation: The Two Words That Launched a Legacy

Jeremy Lindsey Episode 2

Welcome to A Quarter in the Couch, where host Jeremy Lindsey—tax strategist, founder, and father—shares honest stories about money, leadership, and legacy.

In this solo episode, Jeremy opens up about the breaking point that ended his 14-year career at a top firm. After years of sacrifice, long hours, and emotional wear, two simple words—“I resign”—sparked the start of something new. He shares the full story: the moment his boss crossed the line, the fear of walking away, and how he replaced his income in just 34 days.

Whether you're stuck in a job that drains you or leading a team yourself, this episode is packed with personal insight and powerful questions about worth, work, and what matters most.

In this episode:

  • Why Jeremy left a “secure” job after 14 years
  • The toll of toxic leadership—and what he’d do differently
  • How he built a thriving business in just over a month
  • Advice for employees on the edge, and leaders who want to do better

Takeaway:

Respect is non-negotiable. Growth starts when you walk away from what no longer serves you.
