I came here from the 1 year update and wanted to listen to the initial before getting into the update! I left the military for full time entrepreneurship in 2023 so this is interesting to me. Thank you for sharing.

I just hate being a wage slave

The background music makes it hard to concentrate on the context

Good on you, sir!

Good for you. Life is for living. Best of luck, God bless.

Im sure u regret that today Hey we can always find a rich guy, before we hit the wall

Love this update!

Did any commenter below note the dramatic difference in career trajectory ....well maybe the transition from single corporate job to an eclectic collection of jobs / hustles. Wow,... are doing ok now. Maybe you are an entrepreneur type? Wow...your life is both encouraging and a bit scarry. I mean this in a good way, cuz so many out here are scared to leave a well paying full time gig. Wow. You are brave.

Love to see this update - our stories are SO similar, and I'm just at the end of my year, so it's so reassuring to have all of the various updates of yours to reference and feel a little less alone <3

The only thing that I like about my job is that people leave me alone when they know I have to move the plan. Literally that's all I have to say, I'm making changes to the plan, and they leave me alone for the rest of the next three days. And that's my favorite

Tawn has very nice teeth! She is beautiful overall.

“Pay was great” right off the bat I can’t relate

Thinh, I relate to you so much ❤ I’m a hospice nurse and I work full time night shifts. Caring for the elderly and being there for family is important work. I love that you do energy work ❤

were you in the legal dept at amazon? what area of corporate and what did you hate most about it?

Love this!

Thanks for sharing your story ❤

You Vietnamese ? You don’t need a gap year, you need a gap life, come join my team.

What a great interview. This is truly inspiring.

OMG, Tawn, we went to chùa together. Glad you are finding balance in your life. Read Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins. It will get money out of the way… best wishes for you!

Chị, I hope you know that somewhere in the world, there is someone who always admires your life journey ❤️

I finished my final exams at the end of June 2014, before I turned 21. And I managed to find a full time professional job and started immediately on July 1st, 2014. Then I found out my partner in my first relationship was cheating on me when I was having my final exams, that was my 21st birthday “gift”. Fast forward to almost 10 years later, I’ve been with my 3rd company now in a different country and I never ever get to take any breaks between jobs or even moving from Southeast Asia to the US. I’ve been thinking a lot lately and I think I might take a career break soon before I get back to the workforce. I feel like maybe it’s time I finally give myself a break to breathe cause I’ve always been prioritizing people that matter to me for a really long time.

In other words, "Begin with the end in mind." I was doing this 30 years ago.

Hey Thinh Tawn' Le, For business inquiries can you tell us your email?

Thanks for the update and glad to see you are doing well!

Hey Thinh Tawn' Le,, For business inquiries can you tell us your email?

what is UP MOCHI FAM

Thank you again for having me, Tawn 😭

I took multiple gag years, got back to a corporate job a few months ago and feel equally miserable, I am so lost. I am a 35 yr old accountant.

1 year without income would not be the best thing that ever happened to me!

I hope you never have to go back

Vanni is such a talented, kind, and hardworking woman. She deserves all the love and success in the world. Keep going Vanni! Don’t stop!!!

i remember seeing your video about quitting amazon awhile back. and i just saw youtube recommended this video. thanks for the update and wish you the best of luck in your endeavor.

It sounds like you hustle a lot and get into the grind of things. I am similar; however, I do think I would like more time enjoying things that don't offer financial rewards, but money is a concern of mine. You mentioned money as a concern of yours. Do you think you get a good amount of downtime? I get that you get boosts from the work you do such as with geriatrics, but are you satisfied with the selfish time, for a lack of a better term, that you get?

Omggg so happy to see this video pop up in my feed!!

Thanks for sharing. Love it! Keep going

What do you do at Amazon?

Do you see yourself going back to 9-5? Any doubts?

Looks delicious, I wish I can eat that someday!

Did you sublease your apartment while you were away? I am in NYC too!

Thank you for the insight

Kudos for recognising what really matters most in life

Yea, I took a year off after I burnt out, it was the best year of my life in terms of finding myself and learning about what I want to prioritize in life. And to avoid burnouts in future, focus on myself.

Sorry to say you are fortunate, I’m glad you can do this, the middle class families with kids and most bread winners of the household will never have the chance to do what you doing. Ultimately the goal is to find a career (not job) that you are passionate about. I always say money will come when you love what you are doing in most cases. At the EOD no matter how difficult I need to put a roof and food on the table for the family.

Such a cutie

🍑💨🎶👃🏽💕 umm your negative ions umm.. so crave for them

I cut my hours at work in half

Sounds great, but how many people can even come close to being able to afford to take a year off? I haven't taken more than 2 weeks off at one time in the last 23 years.

You seem to feel good about your decisions. As a male without children I can only say I've never, ever regretted it. I enjoyed the nephews & nieces, but no thanks.

She is beautiful😍

i'm thinking of quitting my job as a data scientist in nyc after 2 years of experience... it feels too soon in my career but this video found me at the right time it seems. if i don't rip the bandaid now then when?
