Need encouragement for studying for final exams from a friend who understands & will lovingly tell you like it is? (Part 3) Come take a brief study break with me and listen to this soft-spoken comforting friend POV where I give you an honest, playful, and uplifting study motivation talk. This is Part 3 of my special college series where I'm here to bring you cozy episodes daily through 12/11/20 to encourage you through final exam week.
(The blend of gentle encouragement & practical advice in this series comes from my "lovely" experience as a recent graduate who managed to earn my 3 college degrees by age 20 despite struggling profoundly with my mental health)
I recommend headphones to enjoy this soft-spoken episode & don't forget to listen to Part 1 and Part 2 of this series!
***Edit/Important note: Audio quality in this past episode was due to an old mic, but the quality is much now better with my new mic from episodes 19 and up (Thank goodness). Thank you for your understanding & support as the podcast improves!
My college background: I graduated from Santa Clara University with a Bachelor’s in Finance & Bachelor’s in Spanish Studies(Double major). I painfully learned the hard way how to manage mental health in college while I consistently overloaded credits & did several quarters in a row of 24 or 25 credit overload (the official minimum at my uni was only 12 credits) & took summer classes as well(0/10 would not recommend that overload. Bad yelp review haha). Prior to this, my community college journey started at age 15 while in high school & I graduated with my Associate’s degree in Business at age 17. I share this so you know that I actually walked the walk, I’m not just talking the talk.
I genuinely hope that the insight I share in this series can save you from a lot of tumultuous 2 ams crying into your college textbooks (I had plenty of those) Please be gentle with yourself & if you need more encouragement/resources to support you through finals, come back for Part 4 tomorrow!
If you know a fellow student who is struggling and could use some encouragement, a laugh, or some thoughtful mental health resources, it would mean a lot to me if you could send this episode link to them so we can support and uplift each other with gentle love.
