Just landed a great PE gig and I couldn’t be happier. I am hoping that the grass is actually greener on the other side and I will actually get my life back. I signed my offer today and I am going to officially resign tomorrow. Anybody got any tips for resigning? Should I get ready to be walked out?

No. Put in your notice and call the seniors / VPs that you liked and let them know. No point in burning bridges
Before resigning, I would make sure your background check clears AND your offer isn't contingent on the completion of your banking program.
"I am hoping that the grass is actually greener on the other side and I will actually get my life back."
I've got some news for you, buddy.
Probably not greener, but best of luck in the new gig.
Tell your staffer first, they will likely make you send a formal email to them and HR. They will not walk you out unless you're leaving for a competitor, so be ready to work ("work" aka do nothing) the two weeks notice. Then go ahead and tell your favorite associates, VPs, seniors if needed, and your class.
You should have a plan to transition your staffings, set aside some time to walk the new analysts through them.
You wouldn’t tell everyone when you give your two weeks notice?
Oh sorry that was unclear - yes tell them the same day as you've given notice, not after the two weeks is up
