Life in your 20’s can sometimes be a roller coaster- it’s the decade of growth, figuring out who you are and navigating life being a fully fledged adult. Your twenties is where for the first time everyone’s path goes in a different direction but also according to society the decade we are supposed to have it “all figured out”- which is a lot of pressure.
This episode I’m joined by Manveer, a pharmacist by day but an upcoming chef/ food content creator by evening who is also one of my best friends and has been on the podcast before in Episode 8 where we spoke about what society's ideal desi/south asian girl looks like?
Since we are both turning 30 this year- i thought it would be really cool to reflect back at the past 10 years of our lives, sharing what lessons we’ve learnt in our early 20’s vs late 20’s, our memorable moments, our regrets and how we feel about turning 30. We’ll be talking about our careers and hobbies- how we balanced our careers whilst studying for professional exams and how we felt training for bhangra competitions.
