How do you know when it’s time to stop? Most high achievers would say never. We keep going because quitting feels like failure. But Lindsay Crouse argues that sometimes the bigger failure is continuing past the point you should have.
The four-time Emmy Award winner, four-time Oscar nominee and author of the new book The Case for Quitting spent 15 years at the New York Times covering endurance sports before walking away. This week she joins Jessi in the studio to make the case that sometimes stopping is the most courageous thing you can do, and that knowing when to quit is an essential skill.
In this episode, Jessi and Lindsay discuss:
Why quitting on time almost always feels too early
The moment when perseverance flips into self-sabotage, and how to catch it before you crash
Why the decision to continue always has costs, we just can't see them as clearly as the costs of quitting
What Lindsay's own running career taught her about the difference between stopping and giving up
Why women in particular are conditioned to override their instincts and keep going, and what it costs us
The spotlight illusion: why we overestimate how much anyone notices when we leave
Jessi on quitting Wired too late, and what it took from her before she finally walked away
The five-to-ten year question: a simple way to know whether it's time to start building an off-ramp
What Lindsay's 15 years at the New York Times taught her about identity, and why leaving felt like both nothing and everything

His new book, What Could Possibly Go Right, is about a common obstacle in business. How do you grow without losing the thing that made people love you in the first place?

What Behavioral Science Says About Leading Under Pressure
lundi 31 août 2026 • Durée 29:49
For a lot of people, work feels especially chaotic right now.. Projects start and don't finish. Layoffs happen, then reorgs, then new strategies, and through all of it, managers are expected to have the answers. Caroline Webb spent 25 years coaching leaders through exactly this kind of turbulence. She's a behavioral scientist, a former economist and the author of the new book Leadership Intelligence: Science-Backed Strategies for Mastering 21 Everyday Management Challenges. This week she joins Jessi to talk about what the science of the human brain tells us about leading through uncertainty.

The "know-be-do" framework: how to lead people through uncertainty when facts are in short supply
Why naming how you feel is one of the most powerful things a leader can do and what affect labeling actually does in the brain

Writer, meditation teacher and lifetime student of Buddhism Sebene Selassie has been living with cancer for more than twenty years. In that time, she's learned something most of us spend a lifetime avoiding: how little control we actually have, and how to find joy anyway.

Today you’ll hear about how we make the most of all of it..
