Ep. 7 | Would've, Could've, Should've
Without a plan or self-introspection, we can easily risk falling into our circumstances completely by chance. This week, we chat about the importance of finding out what makes you uniquely you, how we're coming to terms with that in our 30s and ways we are planning to maximize living our best lives through "optimistic planning".
