I’ve missed you guys so much so we’re back with another solo episode just in time for back to school season. Today I share some of my favourite study tips to become the best version of yourself both in academics and in life.I was a student for way too many years, and being a full-time student and content creator at the same time meant that I HAD to develop strong study habits and time management strategies, to help maximize my time in the library and maintain my mental health through it all.

It has been way too long since we have done a solo episode and there is SO much to catch up on. Today we delve into the question I have been avoiding in my DMs, what are my post-grad plans?
As I gear up to finish residency in just 4 weeks my brain is in the trenches of trying to figure out my next moves. So, today, we break some of that down together and normalize it is OK to take a break and it is OK to not know what your next steps are!

We chat about our opinions, tips, and experiences with entering and being in the content creation space. Loved this discussion so much because we've had a lot of similar experiences with doing content creation on the side - having different goals for our pages, comparing ourselves to full-time creators, and maintaining our drive and passion in our busy lives.

Hello hello! So sorry I missed last week's episode, but following my own advice from this week's episode I'm going to be more consistent with it going forward :) Anyway - this week's topic is one that I've talked about a lot in previous episodes but it deserves its own - self confidence. We talk about my opinions, tips, and experiences over my 24 years so far (and it was only interrupted by my pager twice haha)
