The Art of Getting Out

In this episode of “Shrink This!,” Lisa is joined by former comedian and current writer Andrew Ginsburg to talk about something people are terrible at: quitting. Talking about everything from jobs that drain us to relationships that barely function, the duo breaks down why walking away isn’t failure—it’s sanity. Andrew shares how he finally quit stand-up after years of forcing it and how that led him to something that fits him like a glove: writing children’s books. With Celia in the mix, they talk about how to stop pushing through and wasting your life, how to know when you’re done, and why most people stay way longer than they should. If you’ve ever thought, “I’m miserable but maybe I should stick it out,” this might be the episode that gets you to stop.
