In this episode, Mikita gets real about 'quietly quitting'—that sneaky process where we slowly start to pull back, whether it's at work, in our relationships, or even in how we live day to day. It’s not about walking away all at once, but more about that gradual shift where we stop giving it our all. Let’s talk about how this happens, why it happens, and what we can do to turn things around.

Key Discussion Points:
- What quietly quitting really means—it’s not just about work
- The emotional journey that leads to quietly quitting: burnout, feeling unappreciated, and fear of making changes
- Recognizing the early signs and figuring out how to get your spark back
- How routine and autopilot can take you from thriving to just surviving

Episode Summary

Quietly quitting doesn’t happen overnight—it’s a slow fade that can creep into your job, relationships, and even your day-to-day life. In this episode, Mikita shares her thoughts on how burnout, feeling undervalued, and fear of change can lead us to quietly quit, often without even realizing it. We’ll dig into how to spot the signs early and what you can do to get back to truly living instead of just getting by. If you’ve ever felt like you’re just coasting through life, this one’s for you. Let’s figure out how to stop quietly quitting and get that fire back.

What if the key to a fulfilling life lies in small, consistent actions rather than grand gestures? Join me, Makita, on this episode of "Time for Tea with Makita" as we explore the transformative power of building trust and self-care through everyday habits. Drawing from Brene Brown's "marble jar" concept and James Clear's "Atomic Habits," we'll discuss how simple acts like meditating, eating healthy, and practicing gratitude can accumulate over time, leading to substantial personal growth and self-love. We'll reflect on Aristotle's wisdom that excellence is formed by daily routines, and I'll share some heartwarming personal updates, including the joyful addition of a new cat, Turner, to my family.

In this episode, we focus on the concept of "marble jar moments," where small daily actions contribute to building self-trust and care. I'll share how I adapted this idea to my life using a jar and colorful marbles as a visual representation of these efforts. The journey hasn't been without its challenges, but the process of adding marbles—representing acts of self-care—has been deeply fulfilling. Inspired by James Clear's principles, we'll emphasize the importance of progress over perfection, and how even small steps like self-reflection and gratitude can have a significant impact on our long-term goals. Tune in to celebrate these tiny victories and learn how to nurture your inner relationship for a richer, more fulfilling life.

Can embracing vulnerability truly transform your life? Join me, Mikita, as I share my personal journey of living wholeheartedly, filled with moments of openness, authenticity, and sometimes, raw discomfort. Through my experiences, both triumphant and challenging, I unpack common misconceptions about wholehearted living and offer practical advice on navigating the discomfort of vulnerability. Learn why taking a step back to reset and recharge is essential, and discover the profound impact of letting go of the invisible chains that hold us back.

In this episode, let’s explore together why wholehearted living isn’t just about being perpetually joyful but about fully experiencing the spectrum of human emotions. I challenge the myth that we must face life’s journey alone and highlight the immense value that comes from building meaningful connections and seeking community support. By leaning into discomfort and allowing ourselves to be seen, we gain the courage to embrace life’s complexities with authenticity and purpose. Join me on this path to live more fearlessly and wholeheartedly, one step at a time.
