Episode 7: "The Power of Walking Away"
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes the strongest move you can make—in your career, business, or life—is knowing when to say no. In this episode, Katie & Ava dive into the underrated skill of walk-away power: what it is, why it matters, and how to actually build it. Expect laughs, chaos, and a little tough love along the way.
From weekend shenanigans to our first-ever chargeback drama, to real stories of staying too long (and finally leaving), this one’s all about boundaries, leverage, and creating space for better opportunities.
