About this episode

Kym Wootton was a 42-year-old C-suite executive, running 3 departments & making a six-figure income in Boulder, CO when she wondered if life could look different. In January of 2023, she began an adult gap year – a hard reset, leaving her company of 13 years. In this episode, she shares about tolerable levels of unhappiness, the stigma on those who work from home, & downshifting from the grind mentality.
