Prince Harry today advised people who feel 'stuck in jobs that don't bring them joy' to quit and said leaving work was something to be 'celebrated', nearly two years after his acrimonious departure from the Royal Family.
The Duke of Sussex, who lives in an £11million mansion in California and has a series of endorsement deals with companies that pay him to represent their brands, said people should leave their jobs to put their happiness first.
The 37-year-old prince's comments may be seen by some as referring to how he and wife Meghan Markle stepped down as senior royals last year and left Britain for North America before claiming his family cut him off financially.
His quotes were published on the same day his brother Prince William's discussions about his own mental health were released in an Apple audio walking tour. William told how his job as an air ambulance helicopter pilot caused him a mental health crisis when he helped to rescue a seriously injured child - but he continued to work in the role.
Harry also said today that the world was at the 'beginning of the mental health awakening' and spoke about 'continuing to pioneer the conversation'. He was speaking in an roundtable interview with US business magazine Fast Company about his role as 'chief impact officer' with California-based mental health start-up BetterUp.
BetterUp is valued at £3billion and Harry's role, which he began in March, includes product strategy, philanthropy, and public advocacy related to mental health. He is also involved in its commitment to 'Pledge 1%' - a movement which encourages companies to donate 1 per cent of equity, staff time, product or profit to their communities.

People love to be lectured to by a hereditary millionaire about their career choices.
Most folks don’t have dimwit countrymen footing their bills. Glad we dumped the monarchy when we did. Now, if we could only get rid of the DC deep state leeches...
What a disgusting pretend leader.
Obamacare facilitates the type of “liberation” that the “Founders had in mind” because it allows you to quit your job and become a “photographer,” a “writer,” a “musician”--or “whatever.”“As you hear from these stories, this is a liberation,” Pelosi said at a Capitol Hill news conference Thursday.
“This is what our founders had in mind--ever expanding opportunity for people.
“You want to be a photographer or a writer or a musician, whatever -- an artist, you want to be self-employed, if you want to start a business, you want to change jobs, you no longer are prohibited from doing that because you can’t have access to health care, especially because you do not want to put your family at risk,” she said.
One would have thought that living rough in Afghanistan might have changed his perspective on the world, but it seems when Megan removed his balls, she also took his brains too
You pitiful, royal twit. I suppose next come the “Let them eat cake” quote.
That is the first thing I thought of when I read that.
Is he out of his mind?
Any way to get them out of our country?
What a dope.
Being poor and out of work sucks bigly.
Actually, from this dweeb, I’d expect it to be more along the lines of “Let ‘em eat a gluten-free, soy-based, vegan pastry.”
He’s not wrong that one’s mental health improves when one leaves a bad job situation. Being trapped in a the wrong career or job is a sort of torture chamber.
But it’s very easy to make that statement when you have a gargantuan trust fund and Daddy sends you millions in pocket money.
This is part of the “Great Reset.” You’re supposed to be continually dissatisfied with just a regular old job. You’re supposed to want to be an artist or a rock musician or something - until you finally end up broke forever, over your head in debt with no way out.
And just to make the message really clear, they choose rich guys who have never really worked a regular job to deliver it.
Also, you are supposed to want to change genders when you don’t have a real job and you’re supposed to blame your gender confusion on the fact that society won’t let you live and get expensive health care for free.
The post I just made is a lot like this one - sorry, I didn’t read all the replies before posting.
“As you hear from these stories, this is a liberation.”
A liberation from reality. A liberation into poverty, fear, homelessness, and slavery.
I’ve always made it a practice to ignore the “advice” of congenital idiots. Exhibit A.
After I’m done working to pay all the green taxes this twit supports, maybe I’ll have a moment to sit down.
Astonishingly disconnected from reality.
