    6 Bold Predictions for the Future of Tech, AI and Career

    This one’s a little different. I’ve been sitting on some thoughts about where the world’s heading from one of the world's biggest brands possible downfall to the rise of AI influencers and why less might actually become the new luxury. Some of these takes might age terrible and others might just be spot on. Either way, it’s a fun, thought-provoking ride into the next decade!! What we discuss: Why one of the worlds largest tech companies might lose its crown and who could take the throneThe shift from more to less — why minimalism might become premium againHow freelancing and contract work are becoming the new 9–5How your personal brand is becoming your job application and how to work on itThe future of education — and why it may become deeply personal and more expensiveMeet your new marketing manager...Some philosophical reflections on whether we’re headed in the right direction — or just surviving in a system that’s shifting too fastKeen to learn more about personal growth, career and money?     Find me on Instagram or Tik Tok   Thank you for listening, it means so much to me.

    The Health Crisis No One’s Talking About (But Everyone Feels)

    This book snapped me out of my reading slump and might just snap you out of the modern health spiral!! After finishing Good Energy by Dr. Casey Means, I had to share the five most powerful insights that made me rethink everything from my food to my lightbulbs (seriously lol).

If you're tired, foggy, inflamed, or just confused by health advice online, this one's for you.   What We Covered: Why "bad energy" is at the root of most chronic symptoms—like acne, fatigue, depression, IBS, and moreThe surprising ways our modern lifestyle is disrupting our cells—and how to fix itThe toxic incentives built into the healthcare and food industriesSix key principles of “good energy eating” that actually make senseMovement, mindfulness, and the metabolic magic of walking throughout the dayCold water, saunas, and the underrated science behind ancient ritualsA refreshing take on why health is just as spiritual as it is biologicalKeen to learn more about personal growth, career and money?     Find me on Instagram or Tik Tok   Thank you for listening, it means so much to me.
