The "I Am Leaving" Conversation
What you'll learn
- →Approach the leaving conversation with dignity for both sides: clarity, brevity, no over-explaining.
- →Learn the structure: "I've decided to [leave]. I want you to hear it from me. I'm grateful for [specific thing]."
- →Stop trying to make the other person agree with your leaving — your decision is yours.
Proof task
Don't just watch. Do.
If you have a leaving conversation in your future — a job, a relationship, a community — write the three-sentence version now. Don't soften it into ambiguity. The clarity is the kindness. Save it for when you need it.
