Just a couple of months into my first full-time job as an entry level magazine editor in 2010, my boss invited me into a conference room, sat me down at a table with a stone-faced HR representative and let me know my position had been terminated.

I only had a few hundred dollars to my name and scrambled for weeks to find new work so I could pay my rent on time. It shook me to my core, but that experience gave me one unexpected gift — I no longer had any misconceptions about how disposable I was when my employer’s bottom line was at stake. I decided around that time that I had to put my own professional and personal goals before any sense of fealty to my employers or colleagues.

When I look at my lifetime earnings over the years, I see a staggering reflection of a girl who literally quit her way to wealth.

Within three years of starting my career in 2010, I moved jobs twice and doubled my income from $30,000 to $60,000. Three years later, I nearly tripled my income from $60,000 to $163,000 after two other job moves.

And, finally, between 2017 and 2020, after switching jobs twice again, I took home a career high of $300,000 annually (including salary, vested stocks and bonuses). That means that over the course of a decade, I made six big career moves and increased my earnings 10-fold.

This simply would never have been possible had I not switched jobs multiple times.

As they say, rising tides lift all boats. My savings and investments increased with every extra dollar I earned. Today, I’m well on my way to becoming a millionaire before my 40th birthday and I know without doubt I could not have gotten here had I not been brave enough to walk away from employer after employer in pursuit of new challenges and higher compensation opportunities.

I will share every tip and strategy that helped me navigate my career — from the art of passively job hunting to negotiating salaries and crafting the perfect resignation notice.
