We’re back for the second installment of Quit Your Job, Sis Does True Crime, where Lindsay and Katie discuss the Netflix docuseries “American Nightmare.” In Part 1, we met Aaron Quinn as he told the story of his girlfriend, Denise Huskins, getting kidnapped from his home in Vallejo, California. In Part 2, we meet Denise, the victim of the kidnapping, the face of the “Gone Girl Case.”  Again, we say, if you haven’t heard of this case, buckle up – this episode gets a little intense as Denise recounts her side of the story (*Trigger Warning: SA*). We learn about the trauma she succumbs to and everything she goes through leading up until the moment she is released from captivity. Wait – did you say “released?” Yeah – and you won’t believe the events that happen next. We also dive into Lindsay and Katie's thoughts on how the Vallejo PD and the FBI handled the case. Listen as Lindsay and Katie walk through the events that unfold in part two of this 3-part docuseries, with American Nightmare Part 2: Gone Girl.

Quit Your Job, Sis host Lindsay Hanson is stepping into her true crime podcasting era with BFF Katie Meegs. This is going to be a little different than your normal QYJS content. In this episode, Lindsay and Katie discuss the Netflix docuseries “American Nightmare,” the story of the kidnapping of Denise Huskins. If you haven’t heard of this case, buckle up because this one is going to be a wild ride. On March 23, 2015, Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn were asleep at home in Vallejo, California, when they were awoken by bright lights and strange men in their bedroom. Aaron is told to lie on his stomach, Denise is directed to tie Aaron up, and then they are both drugged. Shortly thereafter, Denise is taken from her boyfriend’s home. It’s a “classic” kidnapping story… until it isn’t. Listen as Lindsay and Katie walk through the events that unfold in this 3-part docuseries, starting with Part 1: The Boyfriend.

Have you ever stopped to think about the passage of time? How it never stops; how it's always moving forward? It can be a terrifying thought: not ever being able to return to a moment in time, never being able to go backwards, to get something back, but it can also be a powerful motivator. In this episode, I invite my long-time BFF Katie Meegs to sit down and chat about the essence of time: what even is it? Join us as we talk about: The realization that time never stops, how we’re all just winging it through adulthoodThe wisdom, confidence, and strengths that come with age, emphasizing that every year adds a new layer of knowledge and beauty into our livesThe concept of time and existence and how time is not linearEmbracing change: job dissatisfaction and self-awareness, prioritizing relationships, and enjoying the wild ride that is lifeYour Life Path: Is it manifestation, or is it the path you were always meant to be on? This episode is intended to serve as a gentle reminder that your journey is uniquely yours. Even though time never stops for anyone, you’re not behind “where you should be.” You’re exactly where you need to be. Embrace every stage, and live your life unapologetically. It's not too late to quit your job, chase your dreams, or learn something new. The time is now, and you are unstoppable. Tune into this week's episode for a deep dive into this universal yet deeply personal topic – time and its unstoppable passage. Are you ready? Resources Connect with Katie on IG @KatieMeegs!

HOT TAKE: Hard work is not required for you to have a massively successful business. The corporate world has trained us to romanticize the idea of working 80-90 hour weeks, maybe making six figures, but being stressed out and not having time for our family, friends, or the things that we love. We call it hard work, but there is a big difference between working hard and working efficiently. When I first started my business, one of my ultimate goals was to have more time freedom. I didn’t want to be trapped behind a desk or sitting at a computer for 50+ hours a week just to feel exhausted at the end of the day and like I didn’t have enough time to spend with my family or to do the things I wanted to do. Recently, I read the book The 4-Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris. In it, he talks about the 80/20 rule, which is the concept that 20% of the work we do achieves 80% of our results. Imagine working an 80-hour week, and only 20% of the work that you do actually moves the needle for your career. What if there was a way to create incredible results by working smarter? If you’re ready to learn why I no longer place value on hard work but on results, growth, and efficiency in a business and why the real flex is working LESS and making MORE, then this episode is for you.  Support the showFor more biz tips, BTS moments, and pissing off corporate bros, follow me on social media @lindsaymhanson!

Welcome to Quit Your Job, Sis: Unhinged, where I step away from my usual business and freelancing content to share unfiltered thoughts and opinions about things in my day-to-day life.  In this episode, I dive into relationships, why being desperate to be in one can be problematic, and the importance of being content on your own before pursuing a partnership.  I share why I initially resisted dating my now-fiance despite wanting to, and valuable insight on self-worth, happiness, and finding the right person.  I talk about: Societal pressures on being in a relationship and the negative impact it can have on our valuesThe dangers of desperation: how the mindset of needing to be with a person can lead to settling for the wrong person and missing red flagsCodependency vs. healthy relationships: the importance of not relying on someone else for happiness or validationReleasing desperation and learning how to thrive in the single life If you’re someone who feels like they can never be happy single, I urge you to take a step back and examine why you feel that way. You are already so valued, loved, and important on your own. Your right person will find you when the time is right; it sounds cliche, but it’s true.  Don’t settle for a relationship that doesn’t make your life better.  Tune in to this episode of Quit Your Job, Sis: Unhinged to hear how I challenge societal norms and inspire you to live a life filled with happiness!

What is the one thing you want to or need to do but are scared to pursue? You know, that thing that you keep putting off… Maybe you want to quit your job but are scared because you don’t have all the steps figured out yet, even though you know it's time to leave. Maybe you’re waiting to purchase your dream house or car, even though the opportunity is right in front of you, because making that huge investment is scary, and you don’t feel ready. I’m here to tell you it's okay to do things a little backwards. In this episode, I share how doing things in an unconventional way actually transformed my life and my business for the better. Before you say, “Lindsay, isn’t it kind of irresponsible to encourage this behavior?” listen to the episode. I quit my job before I felt ready and before I was ready on paper. Without a plan B or a second thought about “Is this the right time?” I quit because I knew I needed to leave. I knew I would just keep making excuses for myself if I didn’t. From there, my entire life changed in ways I could never have imagined. Are you ready to stop making excuses for why you shouldn’t follow your dreams? Are you ready to take the leap and do the thing you want, even though you’re scared? Tune into this week’s episode for a little encouragement to take that leap and for a reminder that it's okay to do life a little backwards. All that matters is that it works for you.  Support the showFor more biz tips, BTS moments, and pissing off corporate bros, follow me on social media @lindsaymhanson!
