Quitting is an appropriate topic for Ann Fisher on her last day as host of All Sides, as she retires after 40 years of working in the journalism field.

What if everything we've learned about quitting, from the Protestant work ethic to advice from our parents to not give up on piano lessons, is not true?

Is being labeled a "quitter" a bad thing?

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Julia Keller says, it's not. In fact, Keller believes that quitting is an act of self-love.

Keller joins us to discuss her latest book Quitting: the Myth of Perseverance and How the New Science of Giving Up Can Set You Free.
