A major catalyst for the quarter-life crisis is bad leadership. A lot of good employees begin to second guess their career path because the person above them is stunting their growth (even if its on accident). So a lot of people end up leaving their company when really they should be staying and thriving. The Farm Gate Model explains why this is happening!

Also I take some time to explain Bobby Bonilla Day and how it can affect you and your life's decisions!

One of the most relevant emotions out there right now is nostalgia.

I did my research on this so hopefully it helps if you are feeling it too!
