Firstly, know that you’re not that irreplaceable.
Secondly, people have left more much much less.
Thirdly, your boss would probably do the same.
This is the correct answer!

Just slip out the back, Jack. Make a new plan, Stan. No need to be coy, Roy. Just get yourself free.
Just drop off the key, Lee, and get yourself free.
You should just be straight about it. I promise you, your boss would do the same. If your boss is truly supportive of you, they’ll be happy for you and proud that they played a part in helping to grow you to this point.
Your boss would leave in a heartbeat beat for a $30k raise and promotion.
Work is NOT family or even your close friends, that is about making as much money as you can for plain and simple, you have no obligation to your boss and the company, they will both fire you in a heartbeat if they had to.
Now with all that said, as you grow in your career, remember what your boss did for you. You should do the same and pay it forward.
This industry needs more people like your boss, good managers, mentors and people who try to help and grow others careers. There isn’t enough of good managers in this industry, and you need to ensure you don’t forget what your boss did for you and you should do for someone else later on.
Pay it forward
Don’t get sentimental. It’s business. You’ve got to do what’s right for you first and always. Or, to put it another way, leave the gun and take the cannoli.
In a way, it's a success for them. They've helped foster your talent to reach this new level. They will probably be bummed but also proud.
You can just give your notice and not say where you're going. You don't owe them anything. In fact, it might be best practice to let them find out on LinkedIn

I mean, I think if you explain why you're leaving, you should be fine.
Same scenario (promotion +$30k raise) and same dilemma I went through. I had a really good relationship with my previous boss which made it so hard. What I did was scheduled a call with her as soon as I signed the offer and explained the situation (about 3 weeks before my last day). I did all the needed handovers and documented all pending issues. She understood and she even acknowledged that she nor the company would be able to give me that same offer. We parted in good terms.
Literally the worst advise ever. Take the money, do great at your new job and your new boss will (and already has) invest in you.
How about…”That’s it! I’m done. Buh bye!”
One day 30K will not be much to you. If your boss supports you and you’re growing stay. If you’re leaving to continue growing and gaining skills tell your boss that and leave. But don’t underestimate the effect on your life a good boss has. And don’t chase 10-20-30K here and there. It’s small change when you start making real $$. Those ppl here who say your boss would leave for 30K don’t make that much $ trust me. This focus on growing yourself is what will earn you the big bucks long term.
It’s a lot of $ for you. Not for me. And that’s because I focused on my skill and growth. Also because I got many internal promotions not just external, which look better on a resume. Now I run a department and we’re most likely the same age. Combine that with healthy saving practices and good investing and I am a multi-millionaire while you’re dreaming of 30K. Change your mind and mindset and you’ll change your life. Free advice from someone much wiser than you.
Did you communicate with the boss at all about your satisfaction level as you did so?
Write a resignation letter—and that’s your opportunity/practice for the convo with the boss.
