    New city. New job. New apartment. An honest conversation about swinging hard, missing sometimes, and choosing gratitude for how things work out.

    Fabulous interview with one of my old college friends! In this episode, we dive into the real, unfiltered experience of choosing a new city, a new job, and a new apartment right after college. We talk about learning to be thankful for how things worked out instead of wishing they were different, why it’s okay to swing hard and miss, and the importance of recognizing the privilege we’ve been given and using it with gratitude. An honest, encouraging conversation for anyone navigating big post-grad transitions.
