YOUR QUIET REBELLION
STARTS NOW
You're making "good money" at your big tech job, but there are strings attached…
Handcuffs actually.
No doubt you’ve worked hard to get here…great salary, impressive title.
The benefits are great. The prestige is there.
So why do you feel so trapped?
THE HIGH PERFORMER PARADOX
The career you've dedicated yourself to, has begun to feel like a trap.
Another bonus that doesn't fill the void.
Another promotion that adds 20 more hours to your week.
Another year passing while your real dreams collect dust.
Another round of layoffs making you wonder:.. am I next?
The industry that promised freedom is now controls all of your time, energy and attention.
RECLAIM WHAT MATTERS
The Quiet Rebellion isn't about quitting dramatically or burning bridges.
It's about reclaiming your time, energy, and attention on your own terms, while crafting a strategy that preserves what truly matters.
Having spent over a decade in big tech before creating my path out, I understand exactly what you're facing.
The anxiety.
The golden handcuffs.
The fear of walking away from "easy money" that doesn't feel so easy anymore.
YOUR PATH FORWARD
Whether you want to:
Stay in corporate but transform your experience
Build runway for a meaningful sabbatical
Create a location-independent lifestyle
Launch your own business or consultancy
The Quiet Rebellion gives you the framework and personalized guidance to make it happen.

WHO AM I?
I'm Nicholas Whitaker, founder of Changing Work and guide for your Quiet Rebellion.
I know exactly how it feels. After more than a decade in tech, I faced the same crossroads you might be at now.
I found myself staring down the same questions you’re being woken up by at 3am too.
I realized I could spend two years searching for another job that would probably leave me feeling the same way... or I could spend that time building something aligned with my deepest values.
I chose the latter, and that led me to helping others navigate their own path to freedom.
Your path may be different.
Whether that means reimagining your current role or creating something entirely new.
The techniques I teach blend ancient wisdom with practical modern strategies, drawing from my deep background in philosophy, positive psychology, mindfulness and meditation training, and my real-world experience in big tech, entrepreneurship and recovering from poverty.
